A member asked:
Any non-medical treatments for glaucoma, like a low salt diet, etc ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No good ones: A low salt diet is good for hypertension, but high blood pressure and high eye pressure haven't been linked. There aren't any clear lifestyle changes you can make to decrease eye pressure, that I am aware of.
