Glaucoma is a disease in which the optic nerve is damaged, often due to relatively elevated pressure inside the eye. Because the optic nerve transfers images we see to the brain, damage to the optic nerve may cause permanent vision impairment in the affected eye or eyes. Damage to sight may arise slowly over years and may not be noticeable by a patient until severe irreversible vision loss has occurred. For glaucoma patients and individuals with findings suspicious for glaucoma, routine visits are extremely important. Changes need to be caught as early as possible, so that treatments can be instituted in a timely manner. Dr. Reinke monitors and manages glaucoma patients via intraocular pressure measurements, Humphrey visual field testing, and optical coherence tomography testing. He will prescribe medications (usually pressure-lowering eye drops) and perform laser surgery as needed.
