Glaucoma..?


Ok hi, im only 16, and i think i might have glaucoma in my right eye. Lately it hasnt had the best vision and ive been getting some kick asss headaches. I read the symptoms, and those are two of them, I have an eye doctor apointment tomorow morning. Is Glaucoma able to get treated? Like without surgery? Im not 100% sure i have it, and im hoping i do NOT. But anyone with it, can you please tell me if its treatable.
I don't wanna go blind, im only 16 :(

the cost isnt a problem :)
if itll keep me from loosing my sight, it doesnt matter.

Don't panic.I don't thing you have glaucoma.You only 16 years old very unusual happen at this ago unless congenital type and will start has problem at earlier age.I don't know where you get those information.In rairly type case;acute glaucoma;sudden build up intra eye pressure symptom will be sever eye pain and lose of vision.In short time(24-48hour) will become blindness.This is very uncommon case. and need to treat at once The common case will happen in not your age due to optic nerve damage by high eye pressure or normal pressure usually has no symptom until optic nerve damage;will be lose side vision (can only see central part of view).For treatment;eye drops,laser or surgery .I think your vision no good possible eye need a correction eye glasses.Headache is very common if your eye need glasses.Go to see your eye doctor.

Are you a diabetic??? Just go to the eye doctor and let them tell you with anything it's best if caught in it's early stages.....i'll definately keep you in my prayers though and i hope for the best....... Also it's best to get tested for glaucoma every year or something i think i just got an exam so i'm good

Coleus will reduce the pressure in your eyes and reduce your chances of getting glaucoma or any glaucoma getting worse.

Bilberry might also help a bit. There is one product known as Vision Defence Formula that contains bilberry and quite a few other components such as lutein, etc, etc that might also help.

Try a Yahoo search for glaucoma + treatment (OR cures OR remedies) and see what you get.
