Glaucoma

 

Glaucoma is characterized by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), leading to the destruction of the optic nerve fibers.

In its early stages, this disease remains asymptomatic and affects only the peripheral visual field, hence the need for early screening from the age of 50.

Screening includes a visual assessment, optic nerve imaging analysis, and a visual field test.

Some risk factors:

  • High myopia, hypertension, and/or diabetes

Glaucoma Treatments

 

Treatment Solutions

 

Our team of specialists offers various treatment options aimed at slowing or halting the destruction of the optic nerve, in order to prevent total blindness.

 

    • Pharmacological Treatment
      This treatment involves applying eye drops to lower intraocular pressure.

 

    • Surgery
      Glaucoma surgery involves creating a new “outlet” for the aqueous humor (the fluid inside the eye) to improve its drainage and thus permanently lower ocular pressure. This procedure is offered when eye drops or laser treatment are no longer sufficient to control the disease.

 

  • Non-Surgical Procedure
    SLT laser is a glaucoma treatment that improves the drainage of fluid from the eye to reduce pressure. Performed quickly and painlessly during a consultation, it can supplement or replace eye drops, thereby avoiding their daily use. You can resume your activities immediately after the session.

Bonjour tout c'est bien passé accueil agréable la consultation dans les différentes pièces du centre un peu difficile lorsque vous souffrer d'un handicap, mais le personnel vous aide. Sinon 1 ou 2 chaises un peu plus haute en salle d'attente seraient les bien venu pour s'asseoir et ce relever plus facilement pour les personnes handicapés comme moi. Sinon sur une facture de mémoire de 115€ la sécurité sociale vous rembourse 14€ et après la prise en charge de votre mutuel il vous reste 45€ à votre charge. Les personnes à faible revenus pourront bientôt plus ce soigner avec notre système actuel. Merci cordialement à bientôt M.P.
