Glaucoma Treatment in Nomadoc
About the clinic
Nomadoc in Mazapil, Mexico, provides specialized care for glaucoma through a network of experts trained at top institutions like UNAM and Conde de Valenciana. The facility is recognized by ISAPS and offers a full range of services from laser therapy to advanced drainage implants. This medical platform helps international patients and expats access English-speaking specialists for chronic eye conditions.
Glaucoma diagnostics
Detecting glaucoma early is vital to prevent permanent vision loss. The clinic uses a full diagnostic suite to monitor eye health and pressure changes. Patients undergo several tests to determine the specific type and stage of the condition.
- Comprehensive eye exam. This includes a physical check of the eye structure and optic nerve.
- Optical coherence tomography (OCT). This imaging test creates detailed cross-sections of the retina.
- Tonometry. A standard procedure used to measure internal eye pressure.
- Visual field testing. This test maps the peripheral and central vision to check for blind spots.
Treatment and surgical options
The medical team offers both traditional and modern surgical methods. Specialists choose the technique based on the patient's eye pressure and the rate of vision decline. Treatment plans focus on lowering pressure to protect the optic nerve.
- Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). This modern option uses small incisions to shorten recovery time and reduce risks.
- Trabeculectomy. A filtration surgery that creates a new pathway for fluid to drain from the eye.
- Glaucoma valve implantation. Surgeons place an Ahmed valve or similar drainage device to manage fluid levels.
- Laser treatment for glaucoma. A non-invasive laser application helps improve fluid drainage without traditional incisions.
- Glaucoma monitoring. Regular check-ups are scheduled for patients who do not require immediate surgery.
