Glaucoma Treatments

As well as exceptional surgical options, LondonOC offers a range of non-surgical solutions to treat your glaucoma.

If you have concerns about glaucoma then finding a specialist glaucoma clinic could be a priority in order to receive prompt and professional care. We understand that developing glaucoma can be a big concern to any individual and their families which is why we always discuss a treatment programme with you at every stage. We can help you make sense of a glaucoma diagnosis and ensure that we manage your glaucoma treatment whilst in London both sensitively and compassionately.

Finding out you have glaucoma might come as a shock especially if you don’t have any typical characteristics like diabetes or previous history in the family. We provide ophthalmic support to ensure that the best treatment plan possible is in place. Helping you to feel comfortable is our priority as we recognise that eye surgery to treat glaucoma might seem invasive and daunting.

Glaucoma laser treatment has become increasingly common and can in many cases mean the patient can resume normal activities in a short time. There are various types of laser surgery options some of which will still be combined with medication of some kind. This combined approach in advanced cases should help to reduce intraocular pressure and maintain it too. Having any surgery can be daunting but glaucoma laser surgery is usually a fast and effective treatment with little interference to daily life once complete. Sometimes it might be necessary to repeat a procedure but individual outcomes and next steps can be discussed with an ophthalmologist.
