Hi. Thank you for sharing your story. Vision is such a critical part of our daily lives, so receiving a diagnosis like this can be very painful.

Unfortunately, the only way to slow down the damage related to glaucoma is to lower eye pressure (IOP.) This is accomplished via medications, lasers, and surgery. Typically we start with the least invasive option, which is medications (aka eyedrops.) It sounds like you are receiving the standard of care, which is a good thing.

Re: cost of care, I think we can all agree that things need to change.
