Discription
Glaucoma is the disease of the eye where the optic nerve gets damaged due to fluctuations in the pressure of the eye. Optic nerve is the connection between the eye and the brain and is the structure responsible for transmitting the electrical signals. There is constant water production inside the eye called as 'Aqueous humor' by the structures called as “Ciliary processes”. This water gets drained out of the eye through the structure called as the "Angle". When there is an imbalance between the production and the drainage, there is a fluctuation in the pressure of the eye.
SUNAYAN EYE HOSPITAL is equipped with the latest instruments for diagnosing glaucoma such as the perimeter and the OCT with the latest software updates.
