Most countries have very competent ophthalmologists. The importance is seeing often and using drops or medications as directed. In all countries glaucoma remains a leading cause of poor vision and blindness ususally due to late diagnosis or failure to keep appointments and use glaucoma medicine.

Search out the leading Eye MD ophthalmologist that she can get to on a regular basis and get treatment started.
