Glaucoma
Advanced Surgical Care to Protect Your Vision
Glaucoma is a serious eye condition that causes progressive damage to the optic nerve due to increased eye pressure. When medications and laser treatments are not sufficient, glaucoma surgery becomes essential to control eye pressure and prevent further vision loss.
At Netram Eye Hospital, Nashik, we offer advanced and safe glaucoma surgical treatments tailored to each patient’s condition.
What Is Glaucoma Surgery?
Glaucoma surgery is performed to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) by improving the drainage of fluid from the eye or reducing fluid production. The goal of surgery is not to restore lost vision but to preserve remaining vision and prevent blindness.
When Is Glaucoma Surgery Needed?
- Eye pressure remains high despite medications
- Glaucoma continues to progress
- Optic nerve damage is worsening
- Patient cannot tolerate long-term eye drops
- Advanced or aggressive glaucoma is diagnosed
Glaucoma surgery is performed to lower eye pressure by improving fluid drainage from the eye, helping prevent further damage to the optic nerve.
Surgery is recommended when eye pressure cannot be controlled with medications or laser treatment, or when glaucoma continues to progress.
No. Vision already lost due to glaucoma cannot be restored. Surgery helps preserve the remaining vision.
