Glaucoma Eye Drops Ethos Bright Eyes
Glaucoma is more common in people over the age of 50, but younger people can be affected as well. Remember, damage is difficult to reverse. It is the second cause of blindness worldwide and nicknamed 'the sneak thief of vision'.
One of the problems with Glaucoma is that it is often not diagnosed until it has reached an advanced stage. For that reason alone, everyone should have regular eye tests, ideally twice a year and also due to the fact that it may take years, unnoticed, to deprive people of their sight and by then it can be too late to treat.
The first signs can be poor peripheral vision and that can gradually increase. It is a sign of impending nerve damage which is difficult to reverse. Indeed, permanent nerve damage to the optic nerve will result in deteriorating sight and blindness.
There are a number of diseases of the optic nerve, glaucoma being one, which involve the loss of retinal ganglion cells in a characteristic pattern of optic neuropathy. Increased intraocular pressure, typically something more than 21mmHg, brings with it the risk of the development of glaucoma. A normal reading is13mmHg. It is possible to develop nerve damage closer to the normal pressure and similarly others can live with high eye pressure for a long time and never suffer any damage.
Glaucoma comes in two main forms
- 'closed angle' or acute glaucoma. This progresses slowly, hence the 'sneak thief of vision' nickname
- 'open angle' or chronic glaucoma and angle closure. This can appear suddenly with side effects including bad headaches

My eyes have been poor all my life. Now I am a pensioner I have more time to read but I now need very strong glasses. It means a regular eye test and at the last one, my optician frowned and said she could see the first signs of glaucoma which she would have to monitor regularly. I did not really fully understand what that meant but even I know how to use the internet and did some research. Once I understood more about glaucoma I looked for things that I could do to help. I found Bright Eyes and thought why not? When I went for my latest test my optician was a little surprised but happy that my eyes seemed to have improved. I will be going back again but I will also be continuing to take Bright Eyes.Greta Freiburg, Hamburg
It is very expensive to be going for surgery in Germany so I am thinking that when there is a better way I should take it. My problem is that I was starting to have glaucoma in my left eye and it needed an answer. I heard from my friend that something called Bright Eyes drops my be a help so I tried them. At the present, my eyes are better than before my doctor is saying. For now I am forgetting surgery and taking Bright Eyes. They are working up to today and I hope they will keep working.Kylie, Ireland
Lots of people in my family have had glaucoma over the past years so it's something that as a family we are quite aware of. Most of us have managed to catch it early, only one person didn't and now have permanently damaged eyes; a lesson we have all learnt from.I go to my optician every 3 months because of this just to be safe and low and behold on my last appointment it was my turn for glaucoma. I was told that it was in the very early on stages and therefore easy to treat with no lasting damage. Because of the family history, it was suggested that I use laser surgery as my first option to remove all traces of the disease quickly. However other family members have chosen this option and although it worked wonderfully for some, others have had complications meaning swelling for a prolonged time and infection. Because of my job I was no prepared to risk having aftercare problems if I could use a different option. That is when I decided to use bright eye drops for glaucoma. Again this method of eye drops had been tried and tested by people in the family with great success. I was prescribed eye drops but it worked out cheaper for me to buy bright eyes drops instead of the prescription drops.
I have been using the drops now for approximately 2 and a half months and I have an eye test booked in 2 weeks when my optician will determine how well they are working. However from my point of view they are working very well. The strange sight in the corner and sides of my eyes that I was experiencing has nearly disappeared completely and in general my eyes feel a lot sharper. I will be continuing to use these drops and also recommending them as a cheaper alternative to any future members of the family that encounter glaucoma.
