Glaucoma Treatment Techniques
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world. When diagnosed early and adequately treated, the likelihood of blindness is greatly reduced.
Glaucoma cases are not all the same, the diagnosis of the glaucoma subtype must be precise, and therapy chosen should be the most appropriate for each case.
These are the therapeutic, non-pharmacological options we have available at IMO to treat patients with glaucoma.
