Can high intraocular pressure be cured?

High intraocular pressure refers to an abnormal increase in intraocular pressure. Although it does not show optic atrophy and visual field defects, the risk of optic atrophy and visual field defects is very high, so it needs active control of intraocular pressure. The commonly used treatment method is eye drops to reduce intraocular pressure, most of which can be effectively controlled. Therefore, high intraocular pressure can be treated, but only to control intraocular pressure, not to cure it. With the prolongation of the course of the disease, the frequency and even variety of intraocular pressure drops required will increase, and eventually it is possible that the medication cannot be controlled, resulting in the progression of the disease. Therefore, if the optic nerve atrophy and visual field defect are shown, laser or anti-glaucoma surgery should be actively combined.
