Family Physician - Karachi

Dear Patient,

Glaucoma has several different subtypes-which types does she have? Which eyedrops has she been taking? How often are her followups? Does she have blood pressure or diabetes also- as these may delay recovery. Kindly answer these queries so we can help you better.

However, if drops couldn't revive her condition the doctor would have definitely recommended surgery, take a second opinion if unsatisfied.

For further help, we recommend checking with one of the
