Glaucoma Care at Unique Optometry

At Unique Optometry in San Francisco, CA, we specialize in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma. Led by Dr. Snow Hu, our dedicated team is committed to preserving your vision and maintaining your overall eye health.


What is Glaucoma?

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to increased pressure in the eye. It is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Early detection and timely treatment are crucial to prevent vision loss.


Importance of Regular Glaucoma Eye Exams

During your glaucoma eye exam, Dr. Hu will:

  • Measure your intraocular pressure (IOP) using advanced diagnostic tools

  • Conduct a thorough examination of your optic nerve

  • Perform visual field tests to assess any changes in your peripheral vision

Regular eye exams are essential for detecting glaucoma in its early stages and implementing effective management strategies.


Co-Management of Glaucoma

At Unique Optometry, we offer comprehensive co-management services for glaucoma, including:

  • Referral to a Specialist: If glaucoma is diagnosed, we will refer you to a qualified ophthalmologist for further evaluation and treatment options, which may include medications, laser therapy, or surgery.
