I'm so impressed with all your videos! I wish all my doctors discussed the pros and cons of medications, side effects, costs and treatment options in as much detail and care as you do. Thank you so much for informing the public as well as your lucky patients.
I learned more about the various drops and treatments in this brief video than I learned from my ophthalmologist in over 30 years. That is both enlightening...and sad.
It is dad that many doctors don’t have or don’t take the time to explain these things to their patients. I will do my best to make up for that deficiency by continuing to share information online that I think might be useful to those with glaucoma.
I've been dealing with glaucoma since I was 28 years old. I was on Timoptic/Timonol for over 20 years before I developed an allergic reaction. Went through many of the drops the Dr mentioned but I've been doing well on COSOPT PF for over three years now. Fortunately I'm retired military and that medication is covered.
A very good presentation , thank you.
Thank you for sharing
Very informative!

Thanks Doctor
Thanks,very useful info.
very informative thank you dr david my 9 years old daughter had 25 eye pressure we have dr oppointment nex week try to gatjet as much information
Dr Richardson you are so 😎 YET professional at the same time. You have an open mind and are passionate about offering patient “care” not just satisfying appointments to check numbers and quick exam. This helps to restore some of the distrust and sense of loneliness and exhaustion felt by seemingly many patients. The mere fact that you allow patients to come in and have pressure readings is everything. There is no reason why this should not be a standard. We can check blood pressure and glucose but not the pressure in your 👁 jewels... Keep strengthening the quality of the service you offer. Ocular patients need just as much care as patients with notably systemic issues.
exactly
Thank you Dr.R for such a interesting video
I was without eye drops for 9 months bcse me eyes and my body couldn't tolerate any eyedrops even the preservative free. My doctor didn't talk to me about Rhopressa, and this was my blessing! I had to change doctor bcse insurance issue and my new doctor prescribed me Rhopressa and it worked soooo good for me. I asked the pharmacist about a coupon and I found it in google that had to be from the manufacturer.
For glaucoma with me, I on pilocarpine , brimonidine , dorzolamide timolol, and latanoprost. So far they are doing a really great job of keeping my pressures down and I never had to have glaucoma surgery. I pray that it continues to work and stay like this so I don't have to have surgery.
Not to be negative but they will eventually wear out. Already you're on several forms and that's a clear indication 1 or 2 didn't work. That's the thing with these meds... why is everybody taking so many drops? Because they clear don't work as they should. Then many have to have surgery. Are you in the Glaucoma support group? You would see there how soooo many have had surgeries it's almost like the standard AND THEN the surgeries have to be repeated or tweaked. YES it's time for better treatment!!!!
@@missyblanks9916 that's true if I have to get laser surgery, I will suck it up.
Hello Ms. Jasmyn, I am in Kyrgyzstan and my friend has glaucoma for 5 years. Now the condition is getting worse. His doctor here has suggested him Vizulta eye drops, but we can’t buy it without prescription. Could you suggest any possible way to buy them? I have friends in US who can send it to me, but they have no idea how to get a prescription while we are here.
@@be_joyful I'm not sure. My new Glaucoma specialist is thinking of switching my latanaprost with rohpressa, Travitan, or lumigan to lower my pressure stronger in my right eye
Thank you, so much for this video. I was diagnosed with end stage Glaucoma in 2019. I take 4 different drops each day Timolol, Rhopressa, Lumigan and Alphagan and I'm having some problems dry eyes, severe red eyes, itching, burning and eye discomfort. Now I thinking of getting the surgery called Trabeculectomy I'm not sure about this yet.
what about enzymatic nanoreactors in the treatment of glaucoma , (nanomedicine)???

very good presentation but the audio could be better.
Why no ganfort n simbrinza I'm using this kind of eye drop today. Are they safe and effective pls advice Dr. Thanks
Not very promising for some of us. Tried a medicine lately Combigan, and had a cataract like symptom.. but it was working so well.. So we had to stop it. now I need to go to a specialist to see what they can do further.
It's not uncommon to have to try a few different classes of intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering eye drops before landing on the best combination of effectiveness and lack of side effects. Unfortunately, many insurances will not pay for the brand names that work best for the individual. I hope thay you are able to find a tolerable, effective, and affordable alternative to Combigan.
Learnt that glaucoma reversing has happened with a mice. What's the implications for human.
Hi Dr thanks for sharing
I just came across your video today
2020 I was told I have a glaucom and was given eyedrop and I have been going for eye check up

Xen implant is a save surgery?
When i was a child was taking molt for my eyes now i am 70 years i now have cataracat
Does Dr David Richardson have an office in Tallahassee Florida? It would be great if he did.
Unfortunately, no. I have only one office and it is located in Southern California.
Is this available in the Philippines?
Thanks I'm more enlightened
Any talks of cures opposed to treatments?
Unfortunately, there are no known cures for glaucoma at this time. There is, however, hope for the future based on early laboratory work.
I've tried 4 different glaucoma drops since February 2020 and have had blurry vision side effects or heavy, droopy eyelids.
My ophthalmology treatment has been in Pasadena, CA.
That's not acceptable. Have you had your visual field test? Also, have you had your blood pressure checked? Some of the drops decrease blood pressure which in turn affects blood circulation to the eye. This is not good for glaucoma.

Please help me advice me what I have to do & my Dr. told me to do Cataract surgery it’s mature & he told me better to decide to have a surgery than waiting please advice me what to do am afraid to do or not to do not lose my sight completely ?
I'm afraid it would be irresponsible for anyone to offer individualized medical advice online without first performing an in-person examination.
However, surgery is often recommended to those who cannot tolerate (or are otherwise having difficulty) using their prescription eye drops. Cataract surgery--often combined with minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS)--may be one such option.
Surgeries and medications has come a long way. They produce complications and sideffects more than they ever cured. Are there other treatment options?
Durysta--has anyone here tried this? love to hear replies. thanks
My eyes' money up down hoy.... Continuesly this is. It's been 1 year. I couldn't see anything in the eye because of the gem jumping of the eye. Now the problem is much less but I didn't fully recover. Lambor pancar was undergoing a surgery. The right eye still has this problem. Sometimes it causes my eyes to see. The eye is very cloudy Is. Can't move outside gives me a house in my head when I go out. What should I do?
I’m sorry, but would you mind rephrasing? I’m afraid I didn’t understand the issue. Please know that I am unable to provide individualized medical advice so will not be able to answer the “What should I do?” portion of your question.
If a person has blue eyes, they will turn brown? What about a low grade aspirin to thin blood?
I'm 23 and I have an eye pressure of 20plus... is it dangerous?
Now how is your eye pressure. Have you taken treatment
@@shyamarora4723 yes I'm following my doctor's course. My pressures are controlled only after I stopped playing pc and mobile games.

My eye twitches and never stops it’s been eleven years now Botox doesn’t do much what’s left for me to do
Maybe acupuncture or acupressure, massage or magnesium supplement. There are many alternatives to try!
Does glaucoma always damages the sight from the peripheri of the eyes
I think if you catch it early and keep it under control, you can minimize the damage.
Yes and moves inward more and more IF damage occurs
Please Dr i need your advice, Drs told my Dad that he's lost 90% of his vision due to glaucoma, pls what do we do about it
Dr. Sir I am from India and 40 year old I m a glucoma patient & my eyes pressure IOP is R-42 and L- 38 last 30 December 2020 I m in worried pls suggest me what I should do.. Pls be my pioneer.. Sir I m big fan ur knowledge about glucoma..

Sorry I meant Xalatan
I love my Durysta.. 1 implant 6 months out pressure controlled in both eyes. Best of all no side effects!!!
Is that the only thing you have controlling the pressure? Also for support if others are you ok with SGT what insurance you have improved the implant? Understood if you’d rather not. Thanks for the current feedback!!!
@@missyblanks9916 Yes it the only thing I am using for pressure control. I am part of a clinical study so I paid nothing. So far medicare is the only one who covers this.
@@corinnespanelewski7169 Oh my! that's great! Do you know when it'll be out on the market approved
@@missyblanks9916 It was approved March 2020. I had mine implanted March 2nd 2020. I should be getting another when I go back in March as my pressures are starting to go back up.
@@corinnespanelewski7169 that's great then right at about 9 months. I have seen they have a website and it is available. However, I did see some warnings that may not qualify my son for implantation of it. (sad) But I am so glad you are benefitting from it. It beats ALL those drops anyday. I do believe Drs know those drops don't work long term neither do the surgeries but I guess they have nothing else to lean on. I think there is also an injectable to be out soon. but I'm not setting my hopes on any of it. I will be better off adapting my thoughts to helping him learn a new way of life continuing to be his support. He's tired and so am I. We drive 2 hours for treatment we could get right here locally. I will still keep abreast on what's going on. Continued success and wellness.
Everithing got side effect .Verry negative .
