How to treat cat glaucoma
Treatment methods for cat glaucoma:
1. Medication: intravenous infusion of hypertonic fluid to reduce intraocular pressure, combined with intraocular pressure-lowering eye drops, has a certain effect.
2. Surgery: including laser, ciliary body freezing, tear organ removal, etc.
3. Acute emergency measures include corneal puncture and drainage and peripheral iridotomy. If the optic nerve has atrophied and the vascular membrane has degenerated, treatment will be difficult.
4. After vision loss, the eyeball can be removed.

1. Acute glaucoma is prone to eye pain, such as blepharospasm and epiphora. The pain may be severe enough to cause howling, Lethargy and anorexia may even lead to irreversible blindness 24 to 48 hours after the onset.
