Understanding Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a progressive disease that damages the optic nerve, often due to elevated eye pressure. It is one of the leading causes of irreversible vision loss — but with early detection and proper treatment, most patients maintain excellent long‑term vision.

Common signs include:

  • Gradual peripheral vision loss
  • Difficulty seeing in dim lighting
  • Eye pressure fluctuations
  • Family history of glaucoma

Many patients have no symptoms at all, making regular evaluations essential.

Why Choose a Fellowship‑Trained Glaucoma Specialist

  • Advanced training beyond standard ophthalmology
  • Expertise in complex and progressive glaucoma
  • Precision diagnostics and individualized treatment plans
  • Access to modern medical, laser, and surgical options
  • Long‑term monitoring for stable vision over time

Your care is tailored to your specific glaucoma type, risk factors, and lifestyle.

Your Glaucoma Evaluation Includes

  • Eye pressure measurement
  • Optic nerve imaging (OCT)
  • Visual field testing
  • Angle assessment (gonioscopy)
  • Corneal thickness measurement
  • Risk factor analysis
  • Personalized treatment plan
  • Dilated eye exam

You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your glaucoma status and the best next steps.

Treatment Options

Medications

Prescription eye drops to lower pressure and protect the optic nerve.

Laser Therapy (SLT)

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty improves fluid drainage and reduces pressure with minimal discomfort.

Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS)

Modern, safe procedures that lower pressure with a quicker surgery time, faster recovery and fewer risks.

Advanced Glaucoma Surgery

For moderate to severe disease, selective MIGS procedures or traditional tube shunt procedures may be necessary.

Your treatment plan is customized based on disease severity, anatomy, and long‑term goals.
