Glaucoma Disease Overview
Treatment of glaucoma mainly aims to reduce the pressure inside the eye so that the patient does not lose vision. There are several reasons that lead to high intraocular pressure. When the fluid produced by the eye does not drain normally as it should due to a blockage, the level of fluid pressure begins to rise inside the eye, damaging the optic nerve that connects the eye to the brain. High intraocular fluid pressure can also be a complication of other diseases such as diabetes.
