you will have to continue with the medicine. while using  medicine you must get his IOP checking done at least quarterly. till the IOP is under control with medicine  no need to do anything. or you  may get laser iridtomy and /or trabeculotomy done. it's not very  costly  ,can get it done within 2to3 .or get trabeculoplasty done. but in every case you may have to continue with the medicine.
