Not always — glaucoma is often called the “silent thief of sight” because it can progress without pain or obvious vision changes in the early stages. Regular eye exams are essential for early detection.
There is currently no cure for glaucoma, but it can be effectively managed. With the right treatment — whether eye drops, laser therapy, or surgery — we can slow or stop vision loss and preserve your quality of life.
Treatment depends on the type and severity of glaucoma and may include prescription eye drops, laser procedures, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), or traditional surgical options. Our team will customize a plan for you.
Glaucoma requires ongoing monitoring, typically every three to six months depending on the stability of your condition. We use advanced diagnostic tools to closely track your optic nerve health and intraocular pressure over time.
Yes. A family history of glaucoma is one of the most significant risk factors. We recommend a comprehensive glaucoma evaluation so we can establish a baseline and catch any early changes before vision is affected.

EVO ICL is an advanced vision correction procedure designed to reduce or eliminate the need for glasses or contact lenses. Unlike LASIK, which reshapes the cornea, EVO ICL works by placing a tiny, biocompatible lens inside the eye to correct vision.
