Glaucoma is a chronic eye condition which is detected by our Glaucoma specialists after careful and regular assessments for your eyes.
We call Glaucoma the ‘silent thief of sight’ because the condition quietly progresses over time, without any sudden noticeable signs or symptoms.
Glaucoma tends to run in families and certain groups are more at risk than others. We understand this can be worrying, which is why our Glaucoma specialists are here to help manage and treat your Glaucoma for a better and happier quality of life!
There are two main types of Glaucoma:
These glaucoma conditions differ in how they present and how they are managed to help remission your symptoms and prevent the potential risk of blindness.
Acute open angle glaucoma
Acute open angle glaucoma is commonly presented in patients as a gradual change in vision impairment. Open angle glaucoma requires monitoring and treatment to reduce high pressure in the eye.
Closed angle glaucoma (narrow angle glaucoma)
Is commonly presented as a sudden change in vision impairment. Closed angle glaucoma requires immediate surgery to reduce high pressure in the eye and prevent damage to the optic nerve which can cause vision loss.
We already know that quality of life increases with the quality of clear vision, without needing to worry about losing sight in your future. Because Glaucoma is such an extensive condition with many treatment options, we carry out very comprehensive eye assessments to understand the best treatment options for your Glaucoma case.
When you first visit our Glaucoma clinic, you will meet our friendly technicians who will guide you through these detailed eye assessments. These assessments are designed to capture all angles of your eyes, measuring your corneal thickness, understanding your eyes behaviour and knowing what you can or can’t see in your peripheral vision.
They will diagnose you privately and answer any questions you have about your glaucoma condition and the best treatment. Your Glaucoma specialist may do further pressure checks to determine the best solution to reduce high pressure in your eyes. Once you finish your consultation, you will have full confidence and awareness of the best glaucoma treatment options for your eyes.
In a subsequent visit to our clinic, our glaucoma specialist will continue to provide a dedicated care service for your Glaucoma management.
When you come for your first visit with us, our specialists can determine what package will be best suited for your Glaucoma management.
All eyes are unique! We provide the most wide-ranging successful procedures for all Glaucoma types in our London Clinic.
GLAUCOMA TREATMENT LONDON
Elective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) uses a gentle laser light to clean up the natural drainage pathway of the eye. It does this by creating biological conditions that ultimately improve the drainage pathway and result in lowering pressure of the eyes.
This treatment is successful in 2 out of 3 patients and the effect lasts for 2-3 years. In patients in whom the treatment works, it is safe to repeat Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty treatment every 2 years.
YAG Laser iridotomy YAG laser iridotomy is a preventive treatment that is recommended for people who have very narrow angles that put them at risk of angle closure glaucoma. It is also used to treat acute angle closure glaucoma is an acutely painful eye condition.
Our Glaucoma specialist makes a tiny internal opening in the iris with a laser, this creates a small internal bypass channel that keeps the eye safe from the sudden painful pressure risk of angle closure glaucoma.

Glaucoma drops are the most common first-line treatment for reducing high pressure in the eyes of patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. We provide the best preservative free eye drops as our patients.
Any eye drops given to you as an ongoing course of treatment will be medically provided based on your eye assessments, medical history and any allergies you may have.
HFDS (High-frequency deep sclerotomy) is a surgical procedure also suited to people who have mild to moderate open angle Glaucoma (chronic Glaucoma).
Our HFDS procedure is a very minimally invasive surgery which means only a very small 1.2mm incision is required to get inside your eye.
Our HFDS procedure is a very minimally invasive surgery which means only a very small 1.2mm incision is required to get inside your eye.
Our HFDS procedure is designed to let fluid naturally drain without needing any implant inserted which lowers the pressure in your eyes.
If you also suffer from cataracts, our Glaucoma specialist can remove your cataracts, as well as treat your Glaucoma, in this one procedure.
preserFO is a surgical procedure also suited to people who have mild to moderate open angle Glaucoma (chronic Glaucoma).
Our Glaucoma specialist will create a small flap in your conjunctiva (the white part of your eye) and insert a small 8mm tube called a ‘PreserFlo Microshunt’.
This tube is inserted in the space between your iris and cornea (called the ‘anterior segment’) designed to lower eye pressure by letting fluid bypass the eyes tissue and drain out of the eye.
Our Glaucoma specialist will treat your eye with anti-scarring medication before the procedure is finished.
Glaucoma Trabeculectomy is a surgical procedure most suited to people who have open angle Glaucoma (chronic Glaucoma).
In this procedure, our Glaucoma specialist makes a small incision into the white part of your eye called the ‘conjunctiva’ (just above your iris) and removes some trabecular meshwork (eye tissue) to form a small flap.
This flap serves as a trapdoor and will allow fluid to escape the eye and reabsorb into the body safely without any further damage to your optic nerve.
You cannot see this flap after the surgery has finished because the flap is very small and unnoticeable.Our Trabeculectomy procedure allows excess fluid to pass through the eye easily and lower high pressure in your eyes.
Glaucoma Canaloplasty is a procedure to enlarge the drainage canal in your eye and reduce intraocular pressure for people diagnosed with open angle glaucoma.
Once a tiny incision is made to gain access to a canal in the eye, our Glaucoma specialist will insert a small microcatheter to help the pressure in your eye flow naturally.
Discover our packages to help manage Glaucoma
Providing three full Glaucoma investigations with our specialist, plus free unlimited pressure checks.
This package will begin on your second visit with us (after your initial Glaucoma consultation).
Your consultations in your annual management package will be carried out every four months for the year for a comprehensive check-up.
This package includes two in-depth glaucoma investigations with our specialist, typically combining optic nerve imaging (e.g., OCT), visual field testing, pressure measurement, and a review of your treatment plan. You’ll also have unlimited pressure (IOP) checks between visits, so you can pop in for quick readings whenever you’re unsure or your drops change.
The package starts from your second visit, following your initial glaucoma consultation, and is designed to keep a close, convenient watch on your eye health.
Glaucoma is a group of conditions that can damage the optic nerve, often without early symptoms. Use the table below to compare common types, key risk factors, the core tests we use (like pressure checks, OCT scans and visual fields), first-line treatments, follow-up schedules, and when symptoms need urgent same-day care.

Thinking about Glaucoma treatment? It’s natural to have questions about what it can do for you. From vision improvements to advanced safety features, here are the key benefits and facts that will help you understand why more people than ever are choosing laser vision correction.
Glaucoma is a condition that causes the pressure inside the eye to be too high (called intraocular pressure or IOP). If left untreated, this excessive pressure can damage the nerve that carries the vision to the brain; in severe cases, this can lead to blindness.
You are most likely at risk of Glaucoma if you are:
Our Glaucoma treatment options are safe but there is always a chance there can be side effects and/or risks. Depending on the type of Glaucoma treatment you are suitable for some of the risks may include:
Our Glaucoma treatments start from £450 (the price of your private Glaucoma consultation with our specialist). We understand that Glaucoma needs to be carefully monitored and managed throughout the years. That is why we offer our two management packages which are all inclusive of pressure checks, further eye assessments and eye drops.
At our London Glaucoma clinic, we use various scanning equipment and technology to investigate and capture the back of your eyes, this includes seeing any vision loss you might be experiencing without knowing. Our equipment is highly advanced in capturing the stage of your Glaucoma and how your Glaucoma may get worse without a particular treatment.
There are many different types and stages of Glaucoma. The two main types are open-angle Glaucoma (also known as chronic Glaucoma), and narrow-angle Glaucoma (also known as angle-closure Glaucoma). Most of the time, when people talk of Glaucoma, they are referring to open-angle type (chronic Glaucoma). Open angle Glaucoma is described as the silent thief of sight because the loss of vision is painless but continues to affect the eye’s ability to see.
You will be suitable for all Glaucoma treatments depending on the type of Glaucoma you have. We provide a comprehensive range of Glaucoma treatments for slight to severe Glaucoma cases:
Depending on the type of Glaucoma you have, our specialists will be able to advise the most medically appropriate treatment for you. This will be appropriately advised by our Glaucoma specialist based on the detailed eye assessments we carry out for you in your private Glaucoma consultation. This will give our Glaucoma specialist the best understanding of your Glaucoma condition and its potential progression in the future and which of our treatments will provide the most successful outcome for your eye health and everyday vision.
Our Glaucoma management clinic provides two annual packages for comprehensive Glaucoma check-ups, assessment and any further checks needed when we monitor your Glaucoma and treatment. These packages include unlimited pressure checks, visual fields and OCT scans. Because Glaucoma is an ongoing disease of the eye, we will need to monitor your progress at a minimum of twice a year to understand the health of your eye and your Glaucoma symptoms after treatment.
Unfortunately there is no cure for Glaucoma which is why we always encourage people to get regular eye checks with their opticians to catch Glaucoma in its early stages. Our Glaucoma specialists can then help you manage your Glaucoma case by prescribing eye drops or treat serious Glaucoma conditions with our laser treatments and/or eye surgeries.
