Hello,
I completely understand your concern. While vision lost to glaucoma cannot be reversed, the primary goal now is absolute preservation—stopping further vision loss completely.
In advanced cases (70% vision loss), standard treatment is often insufficient. Clinical evidence shows that managing advanced glaucoma requires:
* Lowering Target Eye Pressure: Advanced nerve damage requires a significantly lower "target intraocular pressure" to prevent further loss.
* Advanced Interventions: If daily drops aren't maintaining low enough pressure, proven surgical/laser solutions (such as Trabeculectomy, Glaucoma Drainage Implants, or Laser Therapy) provide long-term stability.
* Precision Monitoring: Advanced OCT imaging and Visual Field testing are critical to detect subtle changes early.
To protect her remaining vision, a personalized, aggressive management plan is essential.
I welcome you to book a direct consultation with me. We will perform a detailed review of her current eye pressure, OCT scans, and visual fields to establish the exact protocol needed to safeguard her eyesight.
Warm regards,
Dr Snehal Panpaliya
Senior Ophthalmologist & Glaucoma Specialist
