What is Glaucoma (Eye Pressure)?
Glaucoma, popularly known as glaucoma, is an eye disease that can cause damage to the optic nerves as a result of increased intraocular pressure. Although it can be seen at any age, it occurs more frequently especially in older ages. If left untreated, it can cause vision loss or blindness. Early diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma is of great importance to prevent vision loss.
Who is Glaucoma (Eye Pressure) Treatment Suitable for?
Toric lens is an artificial lens specially designed to solve the problem of astigmatism in the eye. Toric lenses, which correct curvatures in the cornea or eye caused by astigmatism, provide comfort in daily life by providing clear vision. Toric lenses are replaced by removing the natural lens of the eye and can correct refractive errors such as myopia and hyperopia as well as astigmatism. In this way, toric lens treatment provides clarity at all distances by solving astigmatism and other vision problems.

In addition, adopting a healthy lifestyle, doing activities that support blood circulation and getting regular sleep also positively affect eye health.
The Role of Nutrition in Glaucoma (Eye Pressure) Treatment

Consuming some vitamins and minerals that are especially good for eye health (vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin A, zinc and omega-3 fatty acids) can support the optic nerves. Healthy foods such as fresh vegetables and fruits, fish and walnuts should be included in the diet of glaucoma patients. Reducing caffeine and salt consumption may also positively affect intraocular pressure.
