Glaucoma Services at Shri Ganesh Vinayak Eye Hospital
Glaucoma, known as the “silent thief of sight,” is a group of eye conditions that can cause irreversible vision loss if left untreated. At Shri Ganesh Vinayak Eye Hospital, we are committed to providing comprehensive care for glaucoma, ensuring early detection, effective treatment, and long-term management.
What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma occurs when the optic nerve is damaged, often due to increased pressure within the eye (intraocular pressure). It can progress without noticeable symptoms until significant vision loss has occurred. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to preserving eyesight.
