Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, but recent advancements in diagnosis and treatment are revolutionizing how this condition is managed. At The Eye Center – Dr. Mahnaz Naveed Shah & Associates, we integrate the latest technologies to provide early detection and state-of-the-art treatment options for our patients.
Cutting-Edge Diagnostic Innovations
The introduction of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCT-A) has significantly improved the early detection of glaucoma. This non-invasive imaging technique provides detailed views of retinal blood flow, allowing ophthalmologists to identify glaucoma before vision loss occurs. Additionally, genetic testing is emerging as a promising tool to determine an individual’s predisposition to glaucoma, enabling early intervention and personalized treatment plans.
Advancements in Glaucoma Treatment
Recent developments in glaucoma treatment have shifted the focus toward more effective, minimally invasive approaches. Sustained-release drug implants now offer long-term control of intraocular pressure (IOP), reducing the need for daily eye drops. New classes of neuroprotective drugs are also showing promise in safeguarding optic nerve health and preventing disease progression.
