There is no cure for this disease, as prescribed by the FDA. However, there are herbs that can help, such as eyebright. You can go to a health food store or look in some herbal books and inquire. But remember to read the labels carefully. Also, talk about these herbs with a doctor to make sure if they're right for your father.

55 is pretty high in pressure and I'm surprised your father didn't notice this and act sooner. However there are non drug methods to reduce the pressure in the eye. This is surgery. There are various techniques to increase drainage within the eye to relieve the pressure caused in glaucoma. Your best bet would be to discuss this with your dad's family or eye doctor.
