Understanding secondary glaucoma: what patients need to know
Secondary glaucoma is a type of glaucoma that develops as a result of another eye condition or external factor, such as injury, inflammation, or medication usage. It arises when these factors interfere with the normal drainage of fluid from the eye, leading to increased intraocular pressure and optic nerve damage. Distinguished consultant ophthalmologist Dr Olubunmi Ogunleye explains the condition, causes and treatment methods.
