Glaucoma Treatment

Glaucoma Treatment at Citi Eye Hospitals

What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease that damages the optic nerve, often due to increased pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure). It is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness, and often develops without early symptoms, making regular screening essential.

Types of Glaucoma

• Open-Angle Glaucoma – Most common, slow progression

• Angle-Closure Glaucoma – Sudden and painful, a medical emergency

• Normal-Tension Glaucoma – Optic nerve damage occurs even with normal pressure

• Congenital Glaucoma – Present from birth

Symptoms to Watch For

• Blurred vision

• Severe eye pain or redness

• Halos around lights

• Tunnel vision (in later stages)

• Headaches or nausea (in acute cases)

Advanced Diagnosis
At Citi Eye Hospitals, we use modern diagnostic tools such as:

• Tonometry (eye pressure measurement)

• Visual field testing

• Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

• Gonioscopy and Fundus Imaging

Treatment Options

• Eye Drops to lower intraocular pressure

• Oral Medications in some cases

• Laser Therapy (Trabeculoplasty or Iridotomy)

• Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)

• Conventional Surgery (Trabeculectomy or Valve Implants)
