What is glaucoma?

Glaucoma is an insidious eye disease that progressively damages the optic nerve, which is responsible for sending images to the brain. This deterioration leads to vision loss, often unnoticed at first. Peripheral vision is gradually reduced, then central vision may be affected. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to irreversible blindness.

Glaucoma treatments aim to lower intraocular pressure and slow the progression of the disease. Treatment options for glaucoma are varied and may include eye drops, oral medications, laser treatment or surgery.

Our team of ophthalmologists will help you choose the treatment that is best for you based on the progression of your disease and your individual characteristics.

Causes of glaucoma

Glaucoma is an optic neuropathy characterized by progressive loss of optic nerve fibers, often associated with elevated intraocular pressure. This increase in pressure is due to an imbalance between the production and removal of aqueous humor at the iridocorneal angle.

The pathogenic mechanisms are diverse and may include genetic, hemodynamic, inflammatory, and neurodegenerative factors. The best known risk factors are advanced age, family history, myopia, hypertension, diabetes, and certain medications (corticosteroids).

Different forms of glaucoma

Glaucoma comes in a variety of forms, each with its own characteristics and requiring a tailored treatment approach. Our eye surgeons in Turkey are experienced in treating all types of glaucoma.

Benefit from accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment at our partner clinics in Turkey, known for their excellence and attractive prices.

Glaucoma treatment in Turkey

Glaucoma, a silent eye disease, is treated in Turkey with an individualized approach aimed at reducing the pressure inside the eye. While this is essential to slow the progression of optic nerve damage, it does not always guarantee a complete cessation of the disease.

Treatment options

Several therapeutic approaches are available to reduce intraocular pressure:

Choice of treatment

The choice of treatment depends on several factors:

However, whatever treatment is chosen, regular follow-up visits to the ophthalmologist are essential to adjust treatment if necessary and to detect any progression of the disease.

Frequently asked questions

When you have glaucoma, it's essential to take certain precautions to manage and protect your eye health. These include:

  • Avoid strenuous physical exertion and inverted head positions (e.g. during yoga exercises): these activities can increase intraocular pressure.
  • Avoid excessive caffeine consumption
  • Avoid eye trauma by wearing sunglasses.

Medications used to treat glaucoma can have the following potential side effects:

  • Eye irritation
  • Blurred vision
  • Dry eyes
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Change in the eye color
  • Drop in blood pressure or heart rate

To monitor the progression of glaucoma, you need to :

  • Measure intraocular pressure (IOP)
  • Regular examination of the optic nerve to detect structural changes and damage caused by glaucoma.
  • Evaluate the visual field
  • Perform gonioscopy to evaluate the eye drainage angle.

To determine whether glaucoma treatment is effective, check with your ophthalmologist whether the reduction in intraocular pressure has been well established. The stability of the optic nerve and improvement in symptoms such as eye pain, blurred vision, or headaches may indicate a response to treatment.

Prices of glaucoma surgery in Turkey can vary according to the type of treatment adopted. In general, the cost can range from 4,000  to 5,000 dollars.
