Comprehensive Glaucoma Management at Vihaan Retina and Eye Care Center

Glaucoma is a serious eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure, which can lead to optic nerve damage and vision loss. At Vihaan Retina & Eye Care Center, we are committed to the early detection, effective management, and preservation of vision for patients with glaucoma. Here's an overview of our comprehensive glaucoma management services:

1. Early Detection: The key to effective glaucoma management is early detection. We offer regular glaucoma screenings and advanced diagnostic testing to identify the condition in its earliest stages, even before symptoms occur.
2. Accurate Diagnosis: Our skilled ophthalmologists employ state-of-the-art equipment, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and visual field testing, to accurately diagnose and stage glaucoma.
3. Personalized Treatment Plans: Every patient is unique, and we create individualized treatment plans that consider the specific type and severity of glaucoma. Treatment may include medications, laser therapy, or surgical intervention.
4. Medical Management: We offer a range of medications to lower intraocular pressure, the primary factor contributing to glaucoma. Our team educates patients on proper medication use and monitors their effectiveness.
5. Laser Therapy: We provide advanced laser treatments, including laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI), to reduce intraocular pressure and enhance the outflow of aqueous humor.
6. Surgical Interventions: In cases of advanced or unresponsive glaucoma, surgical procedures may be recommended. Our skilled glaucoma surgeons perform trabeculectomy, tube shunt implantation, and minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS) to enhance aqueous humor drainage and reduce intraocular pressure.
7. Ongoing Monitoring: Glaucoma is a chronic condition that requires regular monitoring to ensure its stability and the effectiveness of the chosen treatment. We provide consistent follow-up appointments to track your progress.
8. Visual Field Testing: Regular visual field testing is a critical component of glaucoma management. This helps us identify any changes in your peripheral vision, which can indicate disease progression.
9. Multidisciplinary Approach: In some cases, glaucoma may be associated with other eye conditions or systemic health issues. We collaborate with other medical specialists to provide comprehensive care and address underlying causes.
10. Patient Education: We believe that informed patients are empowered to take control of their eye health. Our team educates patients about the condition, treatment options, and the importance of adhering to their prescribed therapies.
