  People with glaucoma should pay attention to their diet. Soem kinds of foods should be avoided if you have developed glaucoma. Foods rich in omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids can affect the development of glaucoma. besides, consuming a large amount of caffein over a short period of time can lead to high eye pressure which can cause glaucoma eventually. Consuming excessive amounts of refined sugars can also contribute to glaucoma. So people should avoid these foods as much as possible.

  First of all you need to find out and confirm which types of glaucoma you are having, go to the professional clinic and hospital to have a detail scrutiny to make sure. Different types of glaucoma clinic should be treated with different method. Once the glaucoma clinic has form up, it's hard to get it recovered 100%, but we still can control it but some ways, to eat some red bean, Adlay, watermelon, white gourd, these kind of ''water food'', honey and glycerine, eat the food with embellish aperient bowel.
