Frequently Asked Questions
Can glaucoma be cured?
Glaucoma cannot be cured but can be effectively controlled. With early detection and treatment, vision loss can be prevented or significantly slowed.
What is SLT laser?
Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a safe, repeatable laser procedure that lowers IOP by improving drainage through the trabecular meshwork. It can reduce or replace eye drops.
Are you a candidate?
- Family history of glaucoma
- High myopia (>-6D)
- Age above 40
