Facing glaucoma surgery? Hear patient and surgeon perspectives in our next Digital Glaucoma Support Group

Finding out that you may need surgery to manage your glaucoma can be daunting. But have you ever wondered what it’s like for the person responsible for performing the surgery? In November’s Digital Glaucoma Support Group (DGSG), we will be joined by consultant ophthalmologist Professor Peter Shah and Gurmit Dhanjal, a glaucoma patient who has undergone surgery. Together, they will share their unique perspectives – discussing the moment surgery became necessary, the day of the procedure and the follow up period.

If you would like to join the session, listen to their experiences, and have the chance to ask questions, please register to join the DGSG.

I have found these zoom meetings to be informative and very interesting, please keep up all the good work that you are doing, just knowing there are others like us that share the same experiences and fears is supportive.
