Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having secondary glaucoma following a surgery.
Since there is no useful vision and glaucoma is not getting controlled with medical line of treatment you can opt for other modes of treatment like cryotherapy or laser photo coagulation therapy.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
