Glaucoma Management in Ujjain: Protect Your Vision Early
Glaucoma is a progressive eye condition that can silently damage the optic nerve, often without early symptoms, and may lead to irreversible vision loss if left untreated. Dr. Arvind Bhatnagar brings years of ophthalmic expertise and thousands of successful procedures, providing advanced glaucoma diagnosis, management, and surgical care in Ujjain.
Visualeyes Hospital delivers comprehensive glaucoma care, from precise screening and ongoing monitoring to medical therapy and advanced surgical interventions. Using USFDA-approved diagnostic tools and surgical techniques, we assess intraocular pressure, optic nerve health, corneal thickness, and visual fields to design a safe, personalized treatment plan.
Every patient receives a tailored approach, combining preventive care, medication guidance, and minimally invasive or traditional surgery when required. Our goal is to protect vision, maintain long-term eye health, and provide patients with confidence and peace of mind.
What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma refers to a group of eye disorders that damage the optic nerve, usually due to elevated intraocular pressure. It can lead to gradual, irreversible vision loss if untreated.
Common risk factors for glaucoma include age over 40, family history, diabetes or high blood pressure, elevated eye pressure, long-term steroid use, and previous eye injuries or surgeries.
Prominent types of glaucoma include
- Open-angle glaucoma: The most common form, often symptomless until advanced.
- Angle-closure glaucoma: Can cause sudden eye pain, headache, or blurred vision.
- Normal-tension glaucoma: Optic nerve damage without elevated eye pressure.
Early detection and regular monitoring are critical to preventing vision loss and maintaining long-term eye health.
Understanding Glaucoma and its Stages
Glaucoma is a progressive eye condition that can silently damage vision over time. Recognizing its stages helps in early detection and prevention of permanent loss.
- Stage 1: Silent Damage: Elevated eye pressure may already be harming the optic nerve without any visible symptoms.
- Stage 2: Peripheral Vision Loss: Side vision begins to fade; you may start missing objects or bumping into things.
- Stage 3: Tunnel Vision: Only central vision remains, which gradually diminishes over time.
- Stage 4: Complete Vision Loss: Irreversible damage occurs if the condition is untreated.
Regular eye exams after the age of 40 are crucial, even if your vision appears normal, to catch glaucoma early and protect your sight.
Glaucoma Diagnosis: Precision That Saves Sight
We use state-of-the-art diagnostics to detect even the earliest signs of glaucoma
Diagnostic Test | Purpose |
Tonometry | Measures eye pressure |
OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) | Analyzes optic nerve thickness |
Visual Field Testing | Checks for blind spots in vision |
Pachymetry | Measures corneal thickness to assess risk |
Gonioscopy | Examines the drainage angle of the eye |
Fundus Photography | Captures detailed images of the optic nerve head |
These advanced tests help our specialists detect glaucoma early, enabling timely treatment to protect your vision and preserve long-term eye health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. With proper screening and modern USFDA-approved techniques, glaucoma surgery is safe and highly effective.
Most types progress slowly, but acute angle-closure glaucoma can cause sudden vision loss if not treated immediately.
Adults should have routine screenings every 1–2 years, or more frequently if you have risk factors like family history, high eye pressure, or age over 40.
Glaucoma cannot be fully cured, but early detection and proper treatment can effectively control it and prevent vision loss.
Through comprehensive eye exams, including intraocular pressure measurement, optic nerve evaluation, and visual field-testing.
