Traditional drug treatment of glaucoma tends to produce sequential periods of overdose and underdose. Methods of avoiding this pulsed sequence are becoming available. The aim is to achieve zero order kinetics instead of first order kinetics. The result should be smoother control of intraocular pressure with a smaller dose of drug. Laser treatments are replacing some of the older surgical procedures for treating glaucoma. No current treatment modality is totally successful and free of problems for all patients.
