Initial treatment is usual with eye drops. These are sufficient to keep the pressure in the target range in most people. There are several different types of eye drop for glaucoma and your eye doctor may need to change your treatment until the right drop, or combination of drops, is found. Once eye drops have been started, they usually need to be taken for life ( there is no such thing as a ‘course of treatment’ for glaucoma).
