Here was Dr. Hanatera's answer:
By measuring intraocular pressure periodically over the age of forty, as well as a careful examination of the optic nerve during an examination of the fundus. In some cases, we resort to examining the visual field with very advanced devices in order to record the function of the optic nerve with utmost accuracy.
Medicinal treatment lasts for life, with periodic follow-up.
There are now modern devices for imaging the optic nerve with laser. This examination is important to confirm the diagnosis and determine the extent of damage to the optic nerve, and then determine the appropriate treatment.
Dr. Hantara explained:
The treatment methods differ according to the intraocular pressure, the extent of the optic nerve being affected and the patient’s response to eye drops, and the treatment methods offered are of two types:
There are now several types of modern valves that are installed on the eye in order to allow the drainage of the watery fluid trapped inside the eye, for example the “Ahmed valve” (referring to the Pakistani scientist “Mattin Ahmed” who invented this valve), and also the “Molteno valve”, More recently, the "Express Valve" and finally the "Meggs device", which led to a breakthrough in the surgical treatment of glaucoma.
