Glaucoma
Glaucoma Awareness , Education and Screening :
Glaucoma screening is a must after age of 40, because glaucoma is the leading cause of preventable blindness world wide. It is called as the silent thief of vision because patient never realizes or notice any difficulty in vision until about 70 % of irreversible vision loss has already occurred. What is required is thorough clinical evaluation of optic nerve and measurement of intraocular pressures (IOP) to do appropriate glaucoma screening. We educate and screen patients for glaucoma here. Regular follow ups of patients will help the doctor and patient as a team to manage and cure any kind of eye diseases.
