March 20, 2016Is there any evidence that some supplements can help normal-tension glaucoma? It is often due to vascular dysregulation, but are treatments for that helpful?

May 12, 2016Hi Helen - Some studies have found that in people with normal tension glaucoma, ginkgo biloba extract increased blood flow to certain parts of the eye (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21976939) and improved pre-existing visual field damage, without changes in eye pressure (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12578781). However, not all studies have found a benefit.
See the "What to Consider When Using" section of the Ginkgo Biloba Supplements Review ( https://www.consumerlab.com/reviews/_/GinkgoBiloba/#tips) and the Encyclopedia article about Glaucoma ( https://www.consumerlab.com/tnp.asp?chunkiid=38393) for more information.
