QUESTION:
I’ve heard that you are a glaucoma specialist. I have this problem for 5 yrs now in my left eye. I underwent surgery twice at **** hospital with Dr. ***. Please help me. Please send me your email address also so we can talk easily and you can help me.
via Email
ANSWER:
I’m sorry to hear about the difficulty you are having with your left eye. Unfortunately, I doubt that canaloplasty would be effective if you’ve already had two surgeries on the eye. To the best of my knowledge, Dr. Ganesh Venkataraman at the Aravind Eye Hospital performs canaloplasty. I recommend that you contact him as there is very little I can do by email. An in-person examination at the clinical microscope is needed in order to determine what treatment would be most appropriate for your eye.
