“ต้อหิน” เป็นได้...ก็หายได้ แค่ต้องแก้ให้ตรงจุด

<h3 style="display: none;">“Glaucoma” can happen… and can be cured, just need to treat it correctly</h3>
<div class="paragraph">
<div><em>Unbelievably… <strong><span style="color: #00826a;">“Glaucoma”</span></strong> is the leading cause of blindness among Thai people, even though glaucoma can actually be cured… as long as it is treated correctly and promptly. So!! If you don’t want to lose your vision for life… let’s check some initial symptoms to see if you are at risk of glaucoma?</em></div>
</div>
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;"><strong><span style="color: #00826a;">“Glaucoma” is caused by…???</span><br />
</strong></span></h2>
<p>Although there are many factors that cause damage to the optic nerve head, an abnormally high “pressure level” causes increasing damage to the optic nerve head from the pressure. Patients gradually lose peripheral vision… and eventually become blind!!</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">Are you having “glaucoma”? Try to check by yourself</span></h2>
<ul>
<li>Often have eye pain or headache and blurred vision after prolonged use of eyes</li>
<li>Central vision is still normal, but peripheral vision gradually narrows</li>
<li>Reduced depth perception, often bumping into objects</li>
<li>Try covering one eye and observe if you can see normally?</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<h2><span style="color: #00826a;">If you have “glaucoma”… you must seek treatment immediately</span></h2>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #00826a;"><strong>Medication treatment</strong></span> focuses on “lowering intraocular pressure” to prevent further damage to the optic nerve!! Patients need to regularly apply eye drops as prescribed and visit the doctor for follow-up evaluations</li>
<li><span style="color: #00826a;"><strong>Laser treatment</strong></span> is used when eye drops cannot control the condition. The type of laser used depends on the type and stage of glaucoma</li>
<li><span style="color: #00826a;"><strong>Surgical treatment</strong></span> is used when medication or laser treatment cannot control intraocular pressure. There are 2 types:</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="contrainer-margin">
<div class="paragraph">
<ol>
<li>Trabeculectomy is surgery to create a drainage pathway for aqueous humor to help lower intraocular pressure</li>
<li>Aqueous shunt surgery is used if the first surgery is ineffective, by implanting a drainage tube to reduce intraocular pressure instead</li>
</ol>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #00826a;"><strong><em>Because patients often do not realize they have “glaucoma,” they may treat headaches or buy eye drops on their own, and by the time the correct treatment is given… the patient may already be blind!! It is best to have regular eye examinations with an ophthalmologist every year, especially for the elderly who are at higher risk of glaucoma.</em></strong></span></div>

Glaucoma... working-age people can also get it. If you have symptoms like blurry vision, eye pain, headache, or start to lose side vision after using your eyes for a long time, if left untreated, it can lead to blindness. But if detected early and treated properly, glaucoma can be completely cured.
