Hey Dr great presentation. Could you give us any of your tips that are more universally acceptable as to the things that we can do in addition to the normal procedure of glucoma treatment. Thank you very much.

Very informative. I have a question - I hear everywhere that niacinamide is just another name as nicotinamide. I am trying to purchase some for my husband, and the term nicotinamide is less frequent in North America. Could I get confirmation that niacinamide is the same? Thanks.

You know you can just google it to find out. I did and Web MD says, Niacinamide, also called nicotinamide, is a form of vitamin B3. It also says, do not confuse niacinamide with niacin, NADH, nicotinamide riboside, inositol nicotinate, or L-tryptophan. These are not the same.

Do the drug-eluting stents currently deliver anything other than PG agonists, for example ROCK inhibitors or Nitric Oxide, given that endothelial dysfunction and lack of appropriate vasodilatation are important risk factors in progression (especially in NTH)?

If AGEs (advanced glycation endproducts) can't be cleared away it's impossible to effectively treat and reverse glaucoma, normal tension as well as high tension POAG (primary open angle glaucoma)

Western medication forever can't effectively treat and reverse POAG (primary open angle glaucoma), normal tenstion and/or high tension. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6Tag6GdorNgmbs If AGEs (advanced glycation endproducts) can't be cleared away, it's impossible to effectively treat POAG. All glory belongs to God !

Strabismus has long term effects that are similar to the ones you listed for glaucoma. I have strabismus and and now glaucoma; I worry or wonder if these symptoms may be exaggerated because of the glaucoma.

i’ve got glaucoma and go twice a year for checkups however strangely i was asked in the middle of these dates to attend a eye health appointment firstly i phoned up the office to check and it was nothing to do with glaucoma. whilst at this appointment it was pointed out i had cataracts as well- the pressure was also up , apparently both connected, i was rushed into theatre (2weeks) for first eye and now 2 weeks later it’s the second eyes turn.. Don’t underestimate glaucoma!!

Glaucoma has been in my eyes for 20 years and I take eye drops every day. So far I have not lost all my sights which I Thank Jesus for because I want to be able to see for the rest of my life.

What a great attitude. Thanks for sharing. I have ocular hypertension which makes me 20% more likely to develop glaucoma. I take one eye drop at night to control the pressure.

Neuroprotection is fascinating. The neuroprotective effects of estrogen was something I've explored and I tried vitB3 though found it wasn't great for liver function. Interested to hear there are clinical trials in NZ for other options. I wonder how much autoimmunity might be playing a role ? Either in cause or in progression after damage.

Interesting my Mother was diagnosed in her early 40s and legally blind from.complications by her mid to late 40s. I had hypertension since my first measurements in my 20s but wasn't medicated until nearly 40 for it when pressures raised a bit more. By then damage was done but apparently it wasn't till I found the right Dr that it was clear it was glaucoma not hypertension. I have luckily got my hypertensive family member in their early 30s onto drops earlier than I had and watching the younger generations borderline hypertension closely. For some this is a slow disease but for others like my family I'm not sure the wait and see approach works as well. I love the repository idea, as a scientist inhave high regards for data and kept my own notes from various people I've consulted no ones been particularly thankful when I bring them along though aside from the time the hospital lost a letter I needed for the procedure I was having.
