A friend has a glaucoma and is afraid of loosing her sight. Anyone had this condition for long time?

I have not heard laser treatment resulting in glaucoma.Pressure on optic nerve may be due to occular pressure.Glaucoma is progressively loosing eye sight.There is good treatment for restoring eye sight to certain extent.Your friends eyes requires detailed examination by an eye specialist.There is real doubt regarding diagnosis.Please do not delay.
