What to do if intraocular pressure is high after glaucoma surgery

Glaucoma is a relatively common eye disease. Eye diseases generally include glaucoma, cataracts, eye opacity and other symptoms. Patients with glaucoma generally experience blurred vision. Glaucoma patients are in great pain. Some people have severe glaucoma and require surgery. So what should you do if your intraocular pressure is too high after glaucoma surgery? Let’s take a look at it together.

1Glaucoma is a very common disease in clinical practice. This disease can cause increased intraocular pressure in patients, causing great harm to their health and vision, so if you have this disease, you must seek timely treatment. Currently, the preferred treatment for glaucoma is actually surgery.

2 Many people will use medication to lower intraocular pressure, but in fact the effect of drug treatment is not ideal. In most cases, patients will use medication to prepare for surgery before surgery. Therefore, it is recommended that patients go to the hospital for an examination in time if their intraocular pressure is high.

3 The doctor will develop a treatment plan based on the patient's specific situation. If the patient's condition is not particularly serious, the doctor will generally prescribe some therapeutic eye drops or oral medications for the patient to take home for treatment. However, if the problem is more serious, surgery will be recommended.

4 In a case like grandma's, how should we patients treat our glaucoma? We glaucoma patients should eat more foods such as garlic and onions in our daily life, because these can reduce intraocular pressure. At the same time, you should eat less greasy food, try not to drink tea, and it is best to quit smoking.

5 Glaucoma patients can also do some eye exercises in their daily lives. Gently press their solar plexus with their fingers and draw circles back and forth. This can relieve their visual fatigue. When nothing is done, patients should blink more often and look at the green things around them to let their eyes breathe.

6 Glaucoma patients must maintain a good mental state and not be overly nervous. The main inducing factors of glaucoma are long-term adverse mental stimulation, bad temper, depression, and anxiety. Therefore, keeping a good mood and avoiding excessive emotional fluctuations are crucial to preventing glaucoma.

Glaucoma patients must pay more attention to their diet in daily life. Do not drink too much water, as drinking too much water can also cause increased intraocular pressure. In addition, you can eat more foods that have a diuretic effect.
