Glaucoma Surgery Seattle, Washington
Sound Eye and Laser offers Glaucoma surgery in Seattle, Washington and our glaucoma surgeons use the most advanced techniques. Glaucoma can be defined as a group of eye diseases that gradually reduces an individual's sight without warning and often without prior symptoms. This vision loss is directly due to damage to the optic nerve. The optic nerve carries images to the brain.
It has been theorized that high intraocular pressure was the main cause of optic nerve damage in glaucoma patients. However, even individuals with normal IOP have experienced vision loss from glaucoma. This leads many experts to believe that other factors associated with glaucoma may be responsible for vision loss.
