I Am 14 Years Old And Have Been Diagnosed With Glaucoma?
I just found out yesterday.
When I went to my check up at the eye doctor they did pressure tests and my left eye was 12 and my right eye was 20. He said come back in two weeks because it might be a fluke. So, I came back and my left eye was 20 and my right eye was 22. So he told me I had it and I’m running some tests in another two weeks.
He said eye drops might help and then I read up on wikipedia and it says laser eye surgery will also help.
What are some other ways to help me eyes?
I don’t want to be 20 and blind =(
You are fortunate that you were diagnosed early.
Treatment is fairly simple. The doctor uses a laser to make a small opening in the iris to relieve the pressure. If acute glaucoma is treated in time, vision should return almost to normal..
Chronic glaucoma is treatable. You will need eardrops or tablets that lower eye pressure, which you may have to take for the rest of your life. If medication doesn’t work, there’s a laser procedure that creates an ariticial drainage channel.
Wow, Well The Best And I Mean Best Thing For Glaucoma
Is Marijuana, It Been Proven That It Helps, So Next Time
Why Not Mention That? Just Say ” I Heard Marijuana Helps Alot,
And I’d Like To Know If I Qualify For It.” Good Luck ^_^
Eat nutritious meals and be regular in putting eye drops in your eyes.
In addition follow the following home remedy regularly.
To 1/2 glass of carrot juice, add the juice of one apple and the powder of four cardamoms.Drink this 1/2 an hour before your meals.Always drink the juice freshly made.——Good luck!
I’m so sorry. . .maybe you should get the eye surgery done when you get old enough.
And just do whatever the doctor says. . . usually you don’t go blind that fast.
20 is on the moderately high side. Go get a second opinion, there are many things that can be done, including drops and diuretics.
I would definitely get a second opinion.
aww im sorry.
eat carrots maybe?
