Glaucoma Clinic
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve, often because of raised eye pressure.
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve, the connection between the eye and the brain. This damage is often linked to increased pressure inside the eye and can slowly reduce side vision before central vision is affected.
Because early glaucoma may not cause obvious symptoms, regular eye examinations are important. With timely diagnosis and the right treatment plan, further vision loss can often be slowed or prevented.
Kenia Eye Hospital offers glaucoma care in Mumbai with detailed testing, pressure monitoring, medicines, laser procedures, and glaucoma surgery when required.
Glaucoma can affect anyone, but some people need closer monitoring because their risk is higher.
Glaucoma is often called the silent thief of sight because damage can happen gradually without pain or obvious visual symptoms. By the time a patient notices vision loss, the optic nerve may already have suffered significant damage.
Early detection allows your glaucoma specialist to set a target eye pressure, monitor the optic nerve, and adjust treatment before vision is permanently affected.
Glaucoma can usually be managed with regular follow-up and a personalized treatment plan. Patients should use prescribed medicines consistently, attend scheduled reviews, protect their eyes from UV exposure, and manage other health conditions such as high blood pressure.
