In Coping With Glaucoma, Edith Marks and Rita Montau redes offer a clear and easy-to-use guide to understanding and living with this sometimes unpredictable condition. They cover all aspects of the disease: the different types of glaucoma; what happens to the eye affected by glaucoma; and the connections between glaucoma and other conditions, such as cataracts, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Using nontechnical language, they explain the tests and procedures used to diagnose and monitor glaucoma - what they are, what they involve, and what they show - and provide important information on the medications used, including the best way to administer them for greatest effectiveness with fewest side effects. Other treatments, including laser therapy and surgical approaches, are discussed as well.Coping With Glaucoma will prove to be an invaluable resource you and your family can turn to time and time again.
