Question

How to treat glaucoma with foreign body sensation?

Answer

Glaucoma is characterized by ophthalmic emergency symptoms, including eye pain, tearing, redness, and a sensation of foreign bodies. Early detection and treatment are vital to prevent further vision damage. Patients typically need to use medications to lower intraocular pressure under a doctor’s supervision or may require surgery if necessary. Moreover, maintaining good eye hygiene and avoiding prolonged use of electronic devices can also help alleviate symptoms and prevent the worsening of glaucoma.
