Understanding the symptoms of glaucoma

Understanding

Glaucoma is an optic nerve disease, most often linked to too high pressure inside the eye. It progresses slowly and without pain, gradually reducing the field of vision. Detected early, it can be effectively treated.

The symptoms

  • Often no sign at first
  • Progressive reduction of lateral vision
  • Field of vision that narrows in advanced stages

The support

The treatment aims to lower the pressure in the eye through eye drops, a laser or surgery, depending on the situation. The goal is to stop the progression of the disease and preserve vision. Regular follow-up is essential.

The course of events

The screening is based on measuring eye pressure, examining the optic nerve, and analyzing the visual field. Regular follow-up allows the treatment to be adjusted over time.

A doubt, a symptom?

Make an appointment for an assessment or follow-up that suits your situation.
