Glaucoma Testing & Treatment in Pea Ridge
Glaucoma is called the 'silent thief of sight' for a reason — it steals peripheral vision so gradually that most people don't notice until significant damage is done. Early detection is everything.
What sets our glaucoma testing & treatment apart.
Glaucoma is called the 'silent thief of sight' for a reason — it steals peripheral vision so gradually that most people don't notice until significant damage is done. Early detection is everything.
Eye pressure (tonometry)
Elevated intraocular pressure is a key glaucoma risk factor we measure at every visit.
Optic nerve imaging (OCT)
High-resolution scans detect optic nerve damage before vision is affected.
Visual field testing
Maps your peripheral vision to detect the earliest functional loss.
Ongoing management
If you have glaucoma, we monitor closely and prescribe drops or coordinate treatment.
Your glaucoma testing & treatment visit.
Glaucoma testing is painless and quick. We measure eye pressure, image your optic nerve, and may test your visual field. If we detect glaucoma or you're high-risk, we'll establish a monitoring schedule and treatment plan — usually pressure-lowering drops — and coordinate with a specialist if advanced care is needed.
Common questions about glaucoma testing & treatment
Who is at risk for glaucoma?+
Risk rises with age (especially over 60), family history, high eye pressure, diabetes, and certain ethnicities. African American and Hispanic patients are at higher risk and should be screened earlier.
Can glaucoma be cured?+
There's no cure, but glaucoma is very manageable when caught early. Treatment — usually daily drops — slows or stops progression and protects the vision you have.
Does glaucoma testing hurt?+
No. Modern tonometry and OCT imaging are painless and take just minutes.
Is glaucoma care covered by insurance?+
Glaucoma testing and management are medical services, billed to medical insurance including Medicare. We'll verify your benefits.
