Frequently asked questions

How long will I need to continue glaucoma treatment?
Glaucoma is a chronic condition, which means treatment is usually long-term. My goal is to help you control intraocular pressure and continuously preserve your vision, adjusting the plan according to your individual needs.
What are the costs associated with glaucoma diagnosis and treatment?
Costs can vary depending on the tests we need and the type of treatment that is most suitable for you. During your first consultation, I will provide you with a detailed estimate and we will explore available options so you feel comfortable with the plan.
What side effects might I experience with glaucoma treatments?
Some treatments, especially eye drops, can cause mild irritation, redness, or temporary blurred vision. I will always inform you about the potential side effects of any option and how we can manage them for your greatest well-being.
What should I expect during my first glaucoma consultation?
During your first visit, I will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your medical and ocular history. Then, we will perform tests such as intraocular pressure measurement, fundus examination, and possibly perimetry or optical coherence tomography, to fully understand your condition.
Are there situations where a specific glaucoma treatment would not be recommended for me?
Yes, each person is unique. I will carefully evaluate your health history and other factors to determine which treatments are the safest and most effective for you, avoiding those that may have specific interactions or risks in your case.
What treatment options are available if eye drops are not sufficient?
If eye drops do not control your eye pressure, we can explore other alternatives such as laser therapy, which helps improve aqueous humor drainage, or surgical procedures to create new outflow pathways for ocular fluid, always seeking the best option for your vision.
