DEFINITION
Glaucoma damages the optic nerve and impairs vision, sometimes progressing to blindness. Major risk factors for glaucoma include age, race, family history, and elevated eye pressure.
TREATMENT AT LAFOLLETTE EYE CLINIC
In addition to a thorough examination by our doctors and staff, the following instruments are helpful in diagnosing and treating glaucoma: the Fundus Camera, the Optical Coherence Tomographer, and the Humphrey Visual Fields Analyzer.
