Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease that damages the optic nerve, generally associated with increased intraocular pressure. If not detected in time, it can cause permanent visual loss. At CeMPE, we approach glaucoma from prevention, early diagnosis, and personalized treatment, adapted to the type and degree of the disease.

Our team performs periodic checks and uses state-of-the-art technology to maintain eye pressure at safe levels and protect each patient's visual health.

Frequent Pathologies We Treat

  • Chronic open-angle glaucoma.
  • Angle-closure glaucoma.
  • Congenital or secondary glaucoma.
  • Ocular hypertension.
  • Glaucomatous optic neuropathy.

Available Treatments and Procedures

  • Medical treatment with eye drops: intraocular pressure control via personalized medication.
  • Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT): effective and non-invasive technique that improves aqueous humor drainage.
  • Filtering surgeries (trabeculectomy): creation of drainage pathways to reduce eye pressure.
  • Drainage implants and valves: advanced solutions for glaucoma resistant to conventional treatment.
  • Advanced monitoring: computerized visual field, optic nerve OCT, and central pachymetry.

Our Approach at CeMPE

At CeMPE, glaucoma control does not end with initial treatment. We design individualized follow-up plans with periodic reviews to evaluate evolution and adjust therapy according to results.

We combine close medical attention, surgical experience, and cutting-edge diagnostic equipment to ensure precise control and minimize disease progression.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a cure for glaucoma?
No, but it can be effectively controlled. With early diagnosis and proper treatment, significant visual loss can be avoided.

What symptoms does glaucoma cause?
In most cases, it causes no discomfort or pain, which is why it is known as the “silent thief of sight.” Early detection is key.

How often should I check my eye pressure?
An annual ophthalmological review is recommended starting at age 40 or earlier if there are family history or risk factors.
