Glaucoma Treatment
in Bay City
At MiVision, we provide expert care for patients living with glaucoma in Bay City and the Great Lakes Bay Region. Known as the “silent thief of sight,” glaucoma can cause vision loss without symptoms. That’s why early detection and treatment are so important.
What is a Glaucoma?
Glaucoma is an eye disease that damages the optic nerve, often due to increased eye pressure. Left untreated, it can lead to irreversible vision loss. Regular exams with an eye doctor in Bay City are key to catching it early.
Symptoms to Watch For
Though early glaucoma is often symptom-free, watch for signs such as:
- Peripheral (side) vision
- Eye discomfort or pressure
- Halos around lights
- Sudden vision loss (rare, but urgent)
If you experience sudden eye pain or vision loss, call us immediately for same-day care.
How We Diagnose Glaucoma
We use advanced diagnostic tools to detect glaucoma in its early stages:
- Tonometry: measures eye pressure
- Optic nerve imaging: monitors nerve health
- Visual field testing: checks side vision loss
- OCT scans: capture detailed images of retinal structures
Glaucoma Treatment Options at MiVision
We tailor treatment to your needs, focusing on lowering eye pressure to protect your optic nerve:
- Eye Drops & Medications – reduce eye pressure and protect nerve health
- Laser Therapy – improves fluid drainage and lowers pressure
- MIGS (Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery) – advanced surgical option with tiny incisions and faster recovery
- Traditional Surgery – recommended for advanced or severe cases
