Glaucoma Medication

Glaucoma medications help manage the condition by reducing eye pressure, which can damage the optic nerve responsible for vision. They come in drops, pills, or injections and work in different ways: some improve fluid drainage from the eye, while others decrease fluid production. Consistent use is essential, as these medications do not cure glaucoma but help prevent further vision loss. Your eye doctor will prescribe the appropriate treatment based on your specific needs, and regular check-ups are important to monitor eye pressure and adjust medication if necessary.
