How Does Glaucoma Management Work?
Glaucoma management involves a combination of regular monitoring, medication, and sometimes surgical intervention. The primary goal is to lower intraocular pressure to prevent damage to the optic nerve and preserve vision. Our team of experienced optometrists will work with you to create a personalized management plan that suits your individual needs.
We use advanced technology, including optical coherence tomography (OCT) and visual field testing, to accurately assess and monitor your condition. By keeping a close watch on the progression of glaucoma, we can make timely adjustments to your treatment plan for optimal results.
Who Should Be Concerned About Glaucoma?
Individuals Over 40
The risk of glaucoma increases with age, particularly for those over 40. Regular eye exams are crucial for early detection and prevention of vision loss.
Family History of Glaucoma
If you have a family history of glaucoma, you may be at higher risk. Genetic factors can play a significant role in the development of the condition.
High Eye Pressure
Individuals with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) are at a higher risk for developing glaucoma. Regular monitoring is essential to prevent optic nerve damage.
Diabetics and Hypertensive Patients
Conditions such as diabetes and hypertension can increase the risk of glaucoma. Managing these conditions and undergoing regular eye exams can help reduce the risk.
If you fall into any of these risk categories or are experiencing changes in your vision, schedule an appointment with G&G Eye Doctors for a comprehensive glaucoma evaluation.
