- Glaucoma:
- Is a group of eye-related ailments that damage the optic nerve, which is crucial for optimal vision. This damage often results from abnormally high pressure in the eye, and can potentially lead up to blindness as well.
- The damage caused by this ailment cannot be reversed, but regular checkups & treatments can either slow down the progress of damage, or prevent further loss from taking place.
- The aim is to reduce his eye pressure which is causing vision loss and optic nerve damage, so your grandfather has the following options:
- Prescription eyedrops, oral medicines, laser treatment, and surgery.

- To know more about surgery, laser, and other minimally invasive treatments, read ahead:
- Laser therapy/trabeculoplasty: The doctor uses a small laser beam to open clogged channels causing intraocular pressure.
- Filtering surgery/trabeculectomy: The surgeon makes an incision in the white of the eye (sclera) and removes part of the tissue which causes intraocular pressure.
- Drainage tubes: The surgeon inserts a small tube shunt in patient's eye and drains out excess fluid to decrease eye pressure.
- Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS): a set of minimally invasive techniques to lower the eye pressure.
There are several MIGS techniques, and the doctor will discuss.

- For OTC creams, use those which contain following ingredients:
- Hydroquinone.
- Licorice extract.
- N-acetylglucosamine.
- Vitamin B-3 (niacinamide)
- Depending on the degree to which your acne & spots are raised, you can also explore the undermentioned options:
- Laser treatment: Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 22,000
- Microdermabrasion: Rs. 1500 to Rs. 6000
- Chemical peels: Rs. 1,000 to Rs. 10,000 per session.
These can be performed on people of all skin types, but if you have any other skin condition such as pigmentation/etc, then there could be complications.
The actual cost can exceed the estimated range, because of factors such as location/experience of the clinician, severity of concern, number of sessions, area covered, and value-added services provided by the clinic.
- For every procedure or treatment option mentioned above, discuss following things with your doctor:
- Risks, correction course, and compensation.
- Pre-operative measures and post-operative care.
- Candidate eligibility criteria.
- Impact of past/current medical issues on your overall experience and recovery.
Taking your skin tone, severity of concern and budget constraints into consideration, your dermatologist will work out the best treatment plan for you.
For every treatment except OTC cream, you would require a dermatologist prescription, refer this page to find exceptionally good doctors - Dermatologists.

Hi. I am 46 years old mother of 2 children aged 13 and 4yrs. In September 2021 I got liposuction and tummy tuck done. After 6 weeks of wearing the prescribed compression garments and daily massages post surgery, I started noticing big, hard eruptions on my stomach area. Some are red and some are very painful. The doctor punctured one of the eruptions to see if any fluid came out but it did not. He then ask me to use Tbac and put me on anti inflammatory medicine+ flexon. Then one day from the eruption i noticed a pus like fluid. Went to the doctor again. A pus culture was done. No bacteria found. Doctor said looks like it is a suture issue with my body not being able to get rid of the dissolvable stitches. He gave me tricort injections on the hard lumps. Now almost 3 weeks later, some are better but new large and painful ones have also formed. Please advise your thoughts on this and what you feel could be wrong. I am very worried.

I think it's still 2 months post surgery. There could be inflammatory reaction because of the sutures. It is possible so we need to see the pictures to evaluate it correctly and I think most of the times they dissolve by themselves. If there's no fever or any other issues, just you can wait for some more time for body to respond to the inflammatory reaction though active intervention is required.
Right now you can share the picture so that we can evaluate it better. still it's just 2 months old we would prefer to wait and watch. You can also visit best plastic surgeon in India for exact treatment.
