The latest title in the bestselling What Your Doctor May Not Tell You series offers readers the very best methods of defense against the 'sneak thief of sight'-glaucoma. Most people can recite the warning signs of cancer and heart disease, but how many know the facts about glaucoma? What readers don't know (but will discover in this vital guide) may one day save their sight. An insidious disease, glaucoma is often misunderstood and is the leading cause of preventable blindness. WHAT YOUR DOCTOR MAY NOT TELL YOU ABOUT GLAUCOMA will help to dispel the myths surrounding the disease and inform readers as to the truth about glaucoma. Divided into three accessible sections, the book takes readers through the most common methods of treatment-including traditional medicinal, conventional, and laser surgery-and explores cutting-edge research and crucial new information on the effects of nutrition, exercise, and herbal medicine on glaucoma.
