Glaucoma Care and Eye Pressure Check in Repalle
Glaucoma causes no pain and no early warning signs. After age 40, a simple pressure check is the only way to catch it. We offer this right here in Repalle.
What Glaucoma Does to Your Eyes
When pressure builds inside the eye, it gradually damages the optic nerve, the connection between your eye and your brain. The damage is silent. There is no pain. Vision loss begins at the edges and progresses inward.
By the time most people notice something is wrong, significant damage has already occurred. Vision lost to glaucoma cannot be restored. Detecting it early is the only way to protect what you have.
Are You at Risk?
You should have your eye pressure checked if you are:
Above 40 years of age
A diabetic patient
Someone with a family history of glaucoma
Experiencing any gradual loss of side vision
An annual check takes a few minutes and carries no risk.
Detection and Treatment in Repalle
We check eye pressure, assess the optic nerve, and test your side vision where needed. If glaucoma is detected, treatment typically begins with medicated eye drops. In some cases, laser treatment or minor surgery may be recommended.
All of this is managed here in Repalle. You do not need to travel to Guntur for routine glaucoma care.
Common Questions
Is glaucoma curable?
Glaucoma cannot be reversed, but it can be controlled. With treatment started early, most patients retain functional vision for life. This is why early detection matters so much.
Does the pressure test hurt?
No. The test uses a small puff of air or a gentle probe at the front of the eye. It takes seconds and is completely painless.
