Glaucoma
Glaucoma develops when increased eye pressure damages the optic nerve, leading to vision loss and potential blindness if left untreated
Two Main Types of Glaucoma
Early detection and treatment are critical to preserving your sight.
With advanced care available right here in Tulsa, our doctors are dedicated to creating a personalized treatment plan and guiding you every step of
the way.
-
Open-angle glaucoma progresses slowly, often with no early symptoms and gradual vision loss in both eyes
-
Closed-angle glaucoma - occurs suddenly, causing intense eye pain and usually affecting one eye at a time
New Advances in Treating Glaucoma
Because glaucoma-related vision loss is not reversible, it is important to detect, treat, and/or prevent glaucoma before it progresses.
Tulsa Eye Specialty uses the latest ultra-high definition imaging and laser technology not only to help detect your risk for glaucoma but also to treat and help stop the progression of vision loss.
