The Ophthalmology Department of Children's Hospital Boston now offers specialized care for children with glaucoma. In pediatric glaucoma, the pressure inside the eye is elevated.
This high pressure can cause damage to the optic nerve and vision loss that may be irreversible if it is not detected and treated early. Treatments focus on reducing the pressure in the eye using medications or surgery.
A team of Children's experts, including comprehensive pediatric ophthalmologists and glaucoma specialists, using state-of-the-art equipment selected with the special needs of a child in mind, will work to provide the latest testing and treatment options for your child.
