Question

What are the symptoms and dangers of glaucoma?

Answer

Glaucoma is an eye disease that can lead to blindness, with symptoms including vision deterioration and field narrowing. If glaucoma is treated promptly and the correct treatment method is chosen, although it may not be possible to fully restore the previous vision, the condition can still be controlled through appropriate treatment. To prevent glaucoma, it is recommended to undergo regular eye examinations, especially for those with a family history. Treatment methods for glaucoma include medication, laser treatment, and surgical treatment, with the specific treatment plan determined by a professional ophthalmologist based on the patient’s specific condition.
