Questions
Since I’ve been diagnosed with glaucoma, my tears seem to fall uncontrollably, and I often feel dizzy. Sometimes, I even feel a bit nauseous. Sometimes things look normal, but when they don’t, it’s like stepping into a world of mosaics, seeing all sorts of colorful chaos. What should glaucoma patients be aware of? What should I do in my daily life?
Answers
If you have glaucoma, you should seek treatment promptly. Methods to reduce intraocular pressure can include laser treatment or surgery. If not treated in time, high intraocular pressure can damage your optic nerve, leading to nerve atrophy. Once the optic nerve swells, your vision will not return to its previous normal state. The main symptoms of glaucoma include headaches, nausea, and decreased vision, and some may mistakenly believe these are digestive system issues.
