My treatment is drops in the left eye only which has the higher eyeball pressure. Initially when diagnosed with glaucoma my options were wait and see or take drops. I elected to take drops which has reduced the eyeball pressure so glaucoma damage is less likely.
Prevention is preferable. My bro in law elected to have an operation for glaucoma and apparently has had good results.
