Glaucoma Detection & Treatment
Glaucoma is one of the major causes of preventable vision loss and blindness in the US. The optic nerve is damaged by increasing intraocular pressure (IOP) inside the eye, and in some cases poor circulation of the optic nerve. Early detection is important to prevent vision loss.
Shallotte Vision Care offers complete glaucoma screening and evaluation for all our patients, including those who are at higher risk and those who have already been diagnosed with glaucoma. Computerized visual field testing and OCT imaging are available. If a referral is needed, we will refer you to one of the top glaucoma specialists in the area. Call us today to schedule an appointment.
