Glaucoma Treatments We Offer
From foundational lifestyle and medication review through eye drops, laser, minimally invasive surgery, and advanced traditional surgery, our board-certified, UCLA fellowship-trained glaucoma specialists offer the full range of evidence-based glaucoma treatment — individualized to your specific diagnosis.
Foundational Care
Lifestyle, Diet & Medication Risk Review
Evidence-based lifestyle and diet guidance, plus a comprehensive review of medications that can raise eye pressure or worsen narrow angles.
Learn More →Eye Drops & Oral Medications
A thorough guide to every class of glaucoma eye drop, combination drops, and oral medications.
Learn More →MIGS Surgery
MIGS Surgery: Overview
Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery options, often combined with cataract surgery, with a faster recovery than traditional surgery.
Learn More →iStent (Trabecular Bypass)
A microscopic titanium stent that bypasses the trabecular meshwork into Schlemm's canal — usually combined with cataract surgery.
Learn More →Goniotomy (KDB, GATT)
Opens or removes the diseased trabecular meshwork using the Kahook Dual Blade, GATT, OMNI, or Trabectome — no implant left behind.
Learn More →Canaloplasty (OMNI, iTrack)
Reopens and stretches Schlemm's canal 360° with the OMNI system or iTrack microcatheter to restore natural drainage.
Learn More →XEN Gel Stent
A soft implant that creates new subconjunctival drainage to reach lower target pressures — a bridge between MIGS and filtering surgery.
Learn More →Traditional & Advanced Surgery
Trabeculectomy
The traditional filtering surgery that remains the gold standard for very low target pressures.
Learn More →Tube Shunt Surgery (Ahmed & Baerveldt)
A durable drainage device option for complex or previously-operated glaucoma.
Learn More →Cyclophotocoagulation (ECP & CPC)
Laser treatment of the ciliary body to reduce the eye's own fluid production.
Learn More →Cataract Surgery for Glaucoma
How removing the natural lens can lower eye pressure on its own, especially for narrow angles.
Learn More →Treatment by Condition
Open-Angle Glaucoma Treatment
A stepwise approach from first-line drops or SLT through MIGS and traditional surgery.
Learn More →Normal-Tension Glaucoma Treatment
Further pressure lowering per the Collaborative Normal-Tension Glaucoma Study, plus vascular risk factor management.
Learn More →Ocular Hypertension Management
A risk-based decision between observation, eye drops, or SLT laser.
Learn More →Narrow-Angle Glaucoma Treatment
Preventive laser iridotomy and medication awareness before an angle ever closes.
Learn More →Angle-Closure Glaucoma Treatment
Emergency management of an acute attack, followed by definitive treatment to prevent recurrence.
Learn More →Secondary Glaucoma Treatment
Addressing the underlying cause first, then individualized treatment for each specific type.
