Abstract

As a major reason for irreversible vision loss, glaucoma is a significant public health concern. Its multifactorial nature demands a nuanced understanding of its pathophysiology, risk factors, and management. An understanding, and continuous refinement, of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities, including pharmacological interventions, novel methods of drug delivery, and surgical techniques (including minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries) are critical. The advent of personalized medicine, genetic profiling, and innovative biomarkers for identifying susceptible individuals and tailoring treatment strategies may help prevent blindness and improve patient outcomes. Evaluation of the impact of lifestyle modifications and holistic approaches and integration of telemedicine and artificial intelligence in glaucoma management may revolutionize current glaucoma practice. In addressing the global challenge of glaucoma blindness, this narrative review highlights ongoing initiatives, public health policies, and community-based interventions. This includes raising awareness, enhancing early detection programs, and access to care, particularly in underserved populations.
