Question

The baby has been born recently, and the eyes keep on watering and he is always crying. I would like to ask about the cost of an acute glaucoma examination.

Answer

The detailed examination for acute glaucoma typically costs around 500 to 800 yuan, with the actual amount potentially varying depending on the region and hospital level. For instance, a third-grade hospital may charge more than a second-grade hospital. For acute glaucoma, it’s crucial to lower the intraocular pressure early on, as early detection and treatment are essential. Delayed treatment may increase the risk of blindness.
