I wish u would put your transcript in English
It amazes me that any of the doctors we go to do not tell us this simple information. Why is that? I specifically asked if there was anything I could do diet or exercise wise to prevent glaucoma and to lower my eye pressure. I was told, “No, it has nothing to do with diet or exercise.” I knew that was wrong because every single medical condition or state of health in general has to do with diet and exercise! I no longer go to that ophthalmologist and “eye care center.” Thank you very much for these videos, Dr. You are saving a lot of eyes! ❤
Thank you for your video on preventing glaucoma. I am in my early 70's and was diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma many years ago. My pressure is under control with eyedrops but I want to know what else I can do to save my sight. Your video was very insightful and I will take your advice to heart. Many blessings to you and yours from Oregon.

I am suffering glacoma, the information you released is very informative and helpful, I will try to adapt some of the points, thank you.
All of it is very informational thank you Doc Tai Blessings
Very informative and I am sure to be aware of risk factors pointed out in this videos.
Such a helpful video. Thank you doc! I was diagnosed with Glaucoma last summer, it was a rapid on-set. I was doing DIY projects which included spray painting and carrying 2 tons of pavers(3 at a time). When I went to the specialist for emergency visit, I told them what I was doing before the eye pressure build-up and they dismissed them. I was told to use the pressure meds until my eyes rejected them after 6 months.
very useful. thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Very good information. Thank you.
@Dr. Audrey Tai, Thank you for free knowledge sharing videos about eye health

Thank you for the lovely video, as I have glaucoma and on eyes drops
Thank you Dr for your advices !
10 helpful tips, thanks
Excellent!
Thank you.
Thank you.😀
Informative video, thanks. My "suspicious glaucoma" with pressure 17-18 changed to "glaucoma", pressure 20-22, after 8 yrs; and after another 2 yrs "pseudoexfoliative" was added. Started latanoprost & gingko a year ago and got pressure down to 7-8, except for my last visit--back to 22-24. I hope the increase was due only to my nasal congestion which has finally subsided now that pollen counts are down again. Side-sleeping didn't work with nasal congestion as I immediately felt eye pressure and had to lie on my back again.
I have never had any vision problems and have been diagnosed with Glucoma in my seventies. Brilliant ophalmologist did Cataracts and stent inplants in my eyes. If not for this eye surgery i would have been blind within a year 🙏
Thank you for sharing these tips, Dr!

Hi doc do you answer any comments thanks
Thanks for informative video, question do you have any recommendation for the protective eyeware to use to reduce risk of eye damage while outdoors . Do you just get 100% UVAB glasses or does it need to be prescribed?

Wish you were my eye doctor. Here in Germany, my oplthalmologist looks at my eyes, quickly. says nearly nothing.I was at two other eye doctors, they were the same. I have, serious glaucoma and lost one eye. No empathy..After 5 minutes the patient has to leave. I was at a party where an eye specialist boasts about the fact that he sees 90 patients a day. .

I am German born and was raised there until I moved to the US decades ago, and yes Germany has socialized medicine which means you have to go on a list for surgery like my brother who had to wait a solid year to have his hip replaced and my other brother had to fly to Switzerland to get his heart valve replaced because the wait time to have it done would have been to long and he would have died. I still have major anxiety going to the dentist here in the US because of the lousy experiences I had in my young years in Germany. I believe you saying that your eye doctor won’t spend any time with you because it all comes down to money because after all it is socialized medicine and the doctor only gets paid a minute amount of money for seeing a patient, so the more people he can see in one day, the more money they can make. People here in America often complain about doctors here and healthcare system but they are totally clueless about how good we have it here compared to other countries when it comes to healthcare.
Daily intake of blue berries, slows down glaucoma.

I am aclocoma patient I need more advice
Thank you very much. About some forty years ago, doctor told me I had Glaucoma until my cataracts done several years ago. Today, I see your videos and read comments, I drive and also, read news papers. But don't know my eye health. One thing for sure, I have stopped eye drop medication disregarding doctor's advice. I'm in my late 70s. Thank you doctor.
While reading the newspaper the left eye shows some darkness is it necessary to go for a eye checkup if so please advise.
Good infornation wish you could speak to me one to one
How about double vision in both eyes
Thank you very much What happens if we use Asetazolamid for lower eye pressure?(before having any problem.Just to have a precaution)
@eyechannelbyeyesurgeon

We ophthalmologists do prescribe acetazolamide to lower eye pressure for patients with very high eye pressures that’s not adequately controlled with glaucoma eye drops alone. Acetazolamide does have potential side effects that need to be monitored by a qualified physician.
I started taking Lutein . I make sure my young adults daughters takes it because they age always on phone and computers studying.

How does one verify that sunglasses are what they claim, as far as UV protection? Even dollar store glasses have stickers on them that claim this.
Thank u Doctor for the health tips. The one that's helpful to me is wearing protection for the eyes, and u are so right the sun damages the eyes. Want to asked a question if it ok. People with glaucoma can they develop flashes and floaters?

Thanks for explaing God(Wele) rewards you.
What can be done to an eye lost as a result of glaucoma. So many surgeries and implants has been done and yet the vision is lost. Any other solution. 2ndly, can the patient stop using eye drop since vision is lost in that eyes?

Unfortunately, vision damage from glaucoma is typically irreversible. Sometimes, glaucoma eye drops are still used for eyes without vision to prevent pain from increased eye pressure. I hope this helps.

I was diagnosed having glaucoma about 2 years ago. I'm on 2 types of eye drops to lower the pressure. Unfortunately I am allergic to one of the eye drops and my eyes itch badly. I was given an antihistamine eye drop to counter the itch but it is only about 30% effective. What should I do? Other eye drops also gave some form of allergic reactions/or not effective.

You may be experiencing a sensitivity to the preservatives in both your Glaucoma drops, as well as the antihistamine eye drops; many if not most eye drops contain the preservative, Benzylkonium Chloride (BCL), likely present in all your drops. This is a very common symptom for patients who may take one or more prescription or non prescription eye drops (even artificial tears or allergy eye drops) over extended periods of time, as would be the case in treating Glaucoma or some other eye conditions. Ask your eye doctor about preservative free eye drops, which are available for several glaucoma and other eye conditions and give you relief.
