Glaucoma Management

GlaucomaGlaucoma is an eye condition caused by increased pressure in the eye that can destroy the sensitive nerve fibers responsible for vision. Glaucoma affects approximately 2% of the population over the age of 35 and generally has no noticeable symptoms such as redness or pain. This silent thief of vision can cause permanent and serious vision loss before you are even aware of the change, leaving you with a tunnel of vision.

Glaucoma is most common in people with a family history of the disease, so anyone with a blood relative who has glaucoma should schedule an annual eye exam. Patients with systemic diseases such as diabetes, anemia or hardening of the arteries, as well as African Americans and Hispanics, are also at higher risk for glaucoma.

Because glaucoma is such an elusive disease, early detection and treatment is imperative. During your examination, your eye pressure and the condition of the optic nerve will be measured. If signs of glaucoma exist, more tests will be conducted and your doctor will create a treatment plan to maintain the best possible vision.
