GLAUCOMA EYE SURGERY & GLAUCOMA EYE TREATMENTS
More often than not glaucoma is associated with an elevation in the intra-ocular pressure of the eye. Eye pressure is a result of balance between outflow and production of aqueous fluid in the eye, any imbalance between these two can cause glaucoma.
Why is it important to treat glaucoma? If left untreated, glaucoma can cause progressive and eventually irreversible optic nerve damage, showing clinically as loss or reduction in vision of your visual field and peripheral vision.

Glaucoma can be a sight threatening condition requiring attention by an ophthalmic consultant, attention must be given to the intra-ocular pressure and also the effects higher eye pressure may have on the retina.
Glaucoma diagnostics are available at The Harley Street Eye Centre, each consultation includes measuring intra-ocular pressure and in cases of known or suspected glaucoma more advanced pressure recording devices are used such as the i-Pen.
To examine the effect on the retina, we have a full compliment of glaucoma diagnostic scanners such as visual field testing and OCT retinal scans.

OPEN ANGLE & CLOSED ANGLE GLAUCOMA
There are two main groups of glaucoma: open angle and closed angle glaucoma.
If you have glaucoma or you are developing glaucoma you may have the following symptoms: reduction in peripheral vision, a painful red eye or blurry vision. Glaucoma when severe can cause headaches and potentially vomiting.
At The Harley Street Eye Centre, our team of experienced glaucoma experts use state of the art equipment to measure your intra-ocular pressure, as well as diagnostics to determine the structural changes caused by glaucoma. We examine the function of the retina (visual field test) and the structure of the retina (OCT).
Glaucoma imaging is a vital part of our glaucoma clinic set up.

TREATING GLAUCOMA
While treatment will initially be in the form of eye drops prescribed by your consultant other specialised interventional treatments are available in our clinic and at our surgical sites.
GLAUCOMA LASER EYE TREATMENTS
Depending on the type of glaucoma you have, whether its open or closed angle your consultant will discuss with you which type of laser is best for you (SLT or YAG).
SLT treatment and YAG lasers are used for the different types of glaucoma, your glaucoma doctor will explain the difference with you.
The laser treatment is designed to reduce dependency on drops for optimal eye pressure control and helps to prevent long term damage that high eye pressure can cause on the eyes.
At The Harley Street Eye Centre we aim to provide the glaucoma laser treatment on the same day as your consultation. This will give you immediate peace of mind so you can feel assured that you are on the right track to having healthy eye pressure.
TRABECULECTOMY
Trabeculectomy is designed to help lower the pressure in the eye by introducing a new route for fluid to flow out and collect in an out of view bleb and the patients experience minimal discomfort.
Glaucoma arises from an imbalance between fluid production and fluid absorption in the eye.
A Trabeculectomy also known as eye drainage surgery is a common procedure and its success rate is as high as 96%. The procedure aims to slow down and stop eyesight from getting worse, but like most glaucoma treatments cannot restore vision to how it was.
In certain cases, we can perform cataract surgery and trabeculectomy surgery, with selective laser trabeculoplasty.
Laser Iridotomy surgery is also available at The Harley Street Eye Centre.

STENT AND TUBE SURGERY
Similar to trabeculectomy surgery stent and tube surgery aims to reduce eye pressure by working to provide a new outflow for fluid. Done under general anaesthesia a valved or non-valved tube will be inserted into the anterior chamber of the eye.
These types of procedures are slowly being favoured over trabeculectomy surgery and demonstrate the same success rate but provide for more long term control of eye pressure.
