If your pet's glaucoma is secondary, meaning it is caused by something else, treatment will addresses the cause, whether it is fungal infection, injury, cancer, etc. Your veterinarian will be able to help properly diagnose and recommend treatment.

If there are no secondary conditions, then the glaucoma itself is best treated with surgery. While glaucoma pet medications may help, most pets are blind within two years unless they have surgery.
