My mother has glaucoma, and she has now lost around 70% of her vision in one eye. Several eye doctors have told us that the vision loss cannot be reversed.
I would like to know how we can best take care of her condition and protect the vision she still has. Are there any treatments, procedures, lifestyle changes, or other options that could help prevent further vision loss?
I would really appreciate advice from ophthalmologists or anyone with experience dealing with advanced glaucoma. Thank you.

In March,I developed viral conjunctivitis in my left eye.I was prescribed Adsorp-DM (moxifloxacin and dexamethasone)6 times a day during the first week nd 4 times a day during the second week.I also used Softdros 3 times a day nd Virson gel once a day.However, my symptoms did nt improve even after two weeks.I consulted another doctor,who diagnosed me with filamentary keratitis.The doctor manually removed the filaments.After that,I was prescribed Lotel eye drops 4 times a day for one week,Gate HS eye drops 6 times a day for one week,nd Refresh Tears.My symptoms improved,bt I continued to have swelling of the upper eyelid of my left eye dry-eye symptoms,nd eye discomfort.I then consulted another doctor,who prescribed Vigadexa and Ocupol-DX. I used vigadexa 4 times a day for 3 days and then stopped it.I did not use Ocupol-DX.
Currently,the lower eyelid of my left eye remains red and the upper eyelid is still swollen.How mny days of using steroid eye drops IOP cn rise?is iop test painful?

I've had eye pain whenever I wear glasses for the past 12 years. I've tried wearing glasses consistently for long periods (including about 2 years continuously), but the pain never resolved. Because of this, I switched to contact lenses (last 10 years), which were generally comfortable and did not cause the same pain.
However, over the last year, I've started experiencing eye irritation with contact lenses as well. It feels as though my eyes have become more sensitive to them, although I'm not sure whether this is due to changes in my eyes or the lenses themselves.
My spectacle prescription has been checked and updated multiple times over the years, but the discomfort with glasses persists. What could be causing this, and what evaluations should I undergo?
