What do Glaucoma Specialist Ophthalmologists do?
Glaucoma specialists diagnose, treat, and manage glaucoma through a combination of medications, laser surgery, and traditional surgery.
They conduct specialized diagnostic tests, monitor disease progression, and can perform advanced procedures to help prevent vision loss and blindness.
What they do
Provide ongoing care: They provide long-term care to help patients maintain as much vision as possible.
Diagnose and monitor glaucoma: They use advanced tests like tonometry (measuring eye pressure), ophthalmoscopy (examining the optic nerve), perimetry (visual field testing), and gonioscopy (inspecting the eye’s drainage angle) to detect the disease and monitor its progression.
Develop treatment plans: These plans are customized and may include prescription eye drops, other oral medications, or a combination of treatments to lower intraocular pressure and preserve vision.
Perform surgeries: They are trained in advanced surgical techniques, including laser and traditional surgeries, to treat all types of glaucoma.
Handle complex cases: Specialists are equipped to manage challenging or advanced glaucoma cases and address related conditions, such as cataracts, which often occur in glaucoma patients.
