Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness for people 60 years and older, but with early diagnosis and treatment, it can be preventable.


At Gonzaba Medical Group, we specialize in senior care and believe it is important to bring awareness of conditions such as glaucoma. Here are the different types of glaucoma and procedures to help treat it.


Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma: this is the most common type of glaucoma and can happen gradually. The eye will not drain the fluid properly, resulting in pressure buildup and damage to the optic nerve.


At Gonzaba Medical Group in San Antonio, we are right here for you and your medical needs. Eye conditions can be severe and can cause significant impairment to your health.
