Question
Based on your description, the diagnosis is glaucoma. I would like to know if using the juice from traditional Chinese medicine as eye drops would be beneficial.
Answer
Based on your medical description, confirmed to be glaucoma. We advise against using traditional Chinese medicine eye drops as many of these medications can be harmful to the eyes and fail to control the concentration of the medication. In comparison, standard eye drops have concentrations that are strictly controlled and can be applied more effectively. For the treatment of glaucoma, we suggest using timolol maleate eye drops or pilocarpine hydrochloride eye drops. If symptoms are severe, surgical treatment can be considered for better outcomes.
