Treatment methods for high eye pressure
Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Wang Shuai
Treatment methods for high intraocular pressure mainly include the following:
1. General management:
Dietary adjustment—consume more honey or other foods that promote diuresis to help eliminate excess fluid from the eye, thereby assisting in lowering intraocular pressure.
2. Rest and lifestyle:
Avoid prolonged eye use, ensure adequate sleep, and develop healthy daily habits.
3. Massage and warm compress:
Gently massage the eyes or apply a warm towel to the eye area to improve blood circulation, taking care to avoid excessive heat.
4. Medication:
Follow medical advice and use medications such as levobunolol hydrochloride ophthalmic solution or brinzolamide ophthalmic solution, which effectively reduce intraocular pressure and relieve discomfort.
5. Surgical treatment:
For patients with optic nerve damage or those unresponsive to medication, surgical options such as laser trabeculoplasty or peripheral iridectomy may be considered.
