Treatment for glaucoma usually includes medication, laser treatment, and surgery, and it is important to work closely with an ophthalmologist to determine the best course of treatment.
There are several types of glaucoma such as:

  • Primary open-angle glaucoma
  • Angle-closure glaucoma
  • Normal-tension glaucoma
  • Congenital Glaucoma
  • Secondary Glaucoma

The primary test that is done to check for glaucoma is a test known as tonometry which measures the pressure inside the eye. Other tests such as slit lamp examination, corneal thickness measurement, visual field testing, and optic nerve imaging are also done.
No, glaucoma cannot be cured with eye drops. Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease that can damage the optic nerve and cause vision loss. Eye drops may reduce the pressure in the eye, but they cannot cure the disease. Surgery is usually necessary to reduce pressure and prevent further damage.
Glaucoma can be controlled and managed by getting regular medical checkups, taking the prescribed medications, getting a surgical intervention if required, and keeping any factors that increase its risk under control.
Glaucoma treatment doctors say that the effectiveness of laser treatment for glaucoma can vary between 2-5 years for most people.
Yes, glaucoma can be hereditary, but it can also be caused by other factors such as high eye pressure, certain medical conditions, or injury. Consult the best doctors for glaucoma treatment in Kolkata to know more.
