The TREATMENT of GLAUCOMA
is to lower the pressure in the eye. This is done through two
methods using eye drops. One is to use chemical drops that force your
pupil to narrow freeing up space around the exit channels making
it easier for eye fluid to escape. And the other is to use drops that
are absorbed and lower production of eye fluid.
If these methods fail, then surgery
is necessary. Artificial drainage is made by cutting a window at 12
o'clock through the iris. This allows free flow of eye fluid and it's
escape.
