Tags: glaucoma, surgery, toddler eye problem, doctor search

my daughter is 3 and a half years old she had a surgery for phpv, catarat, and currently has glaucoma [she's had a valve implant]. She is needs to get another surgery for her galcoma...and i was wondering what the best doctors are for treating unique galucoma cases such as my daughters..it would also help if they were around the NJ area..but others can be options as well.
thank you.

That is very specialized care. Your best bet would probably be the department of ophthalmology as an accessible medical school]
