Key Supplements
- Omega-3 (DHA/EPA) 2-4g/day (improves optic nerve blood flow, neuroprotective, may modestly lower IOP)
- Ginkgo Biloba 120-240mg/day (improves ocular blood flow, neuroprotective—some studies show visual field improvement, others mixed)
- Magnesium 400-600mg/day (improves ocular blood flow, vascular relaxation—may modestly lower IOP)
- Alpha-Lipoic Acid 300-600mg/day (antioxidant, neuroprotective—protects retinal ganglion cells)
- Coenzyme Q10 200-400mg/day (mitochondrial support, neuroprotective)
- Vitamin B12 1000mcg/day + Folate 1mg (homocysteine elevation damages vasculature—common in glaucoma)
Key Lab Markers
- Tonometry (measures IOP—normal 10-21 mmHg, goal <18-15 or 20-30% reduction from baseline depending on severity)
- Ophthalmoscopy (dilated exam—visualizes optic nerve, cupping, damage)
- Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT—measures retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, detects early damage)
- Visual Field Testing (perimetry—detects peripheral vision loss, tracks progression)
