Hi! Recently I went to ophthalmologist to my routine control and he told me that I had glaucoma. I didn’t have any signs at all but it happens. I’ve just started to inform myself about it. Can somebody tell me why is important to use eye drop for glaucoma and are there many kinds of them?

Eye drops are an important part of the treatment for glucoma. They help maintain the pressure in your eye. There are many types of eye drop for glaucoma. All of them can cause some irritation. Be careful because some drops may cause an allergy. If your eyes become red and puffy, immediately go to see your eye doctor.
