Hi, Yes this is a serious issue.  But as long as she uses drops as advised,  go for regular check up and follow her glaucoma specialist advice,  prognosis will be good.  Nothing to worry.

Just keep a regular follow up with your doctor and don't miss the medication ever. Each and every dose is important. If pressure is controlled with drops it has good prognosis.
