Our specialists are trained to diagnose and manage all types of glaucoma with a personalized, long-term approach.
Best Glaucoma Treatment in Andul – Early Detection is Key
Glaucoma is a group of eye disorders that damage the optic nerve, typically due to increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Left untreated, it can lead to permanent vision loss. The challenge? Most types of glaucoma show no symptoms until advanced stages. That's why early screening and regular monitoring are crucial.
At Drishtipath, we offer the Best Glaucoma Treatment in Andul, with comprehensive services for early detection and management.
Comprehensive Glaucoma Diagnostic Services
We use advanced diagnostic tools to detect glaucoma at its earliest stage:
- Tonometry – Accurate measurement of eye pressure
- Gonioscopy – Examination of the eye's drainage angle
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) – Detailed optic nerve analysis
- Visual Field Testing – Assessment of peripheral vision loss
- Pachymetry – Measurement of corneal thickness
- Fundus Examination – Direct visualization of optic nerve
- Nerve Fiber Layer Analysis – For early nerve damage detection
Based on your diagnosis, we create a customized treatment plan that may include medicated eye drops, laser therapy, or surgery.
Understanding Glaucoma – Types and Risk Factors
There are several types of glaucoma, and each requires a specific treatment approach:
- Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma – The most common form, progresses slowly and painlessly
- Angle-Closure Glaucoma – Sudden increase in eye pressure requiring immediate treatment
- Normal-Tension Glaucoma – Optic nerve damage occurs with normal eye pressure levels
- Secondary Glaucoma – Results from trauma, steroid use, or other eye diseases
- Congenital Glaucoma – Affects infants and young children
Glaucoma Risk Factors
Be aware of these factors that increase glaucoma risk:
- Age over 40 years
- Family history of glaucoma
- Diabetes and hypertension
- High myopia (nearsightedness)
- Long-term steroid medication use
- Previous eye injury or surgery
- African or Asian ancestry
- Thin corneas
