Overview

Glaucoma is a condition that causes damage to your eye's optic nerve and gets worse over time. It's often linked to a buildup of pressure inside your eye. Glaucoma tends to be inherited and may not show up until later in life.The increased pressure, called intraocular pressure, can damage the optic nerve, which transmits images to your brain. If the damage continues, glaucoma can lead to permanent vision loss. Without treatment, glaucoma can cause total permanent blindness within a few years.Most people with glaucoma have no early symptoms or pain. You need to see your eye doctor regularly so she can diagnose and treat glaucoma before long-term visual loss happens.If you're over age 40 and have a family history of the disease, you should get a complete eye exam from an eye doctor every 1 to 2 years. If you have health problems like diabetes or a family history of glaucoma or are at risk for other eye diseases, you may need CBD oil for glaucoma perhaps is one of the long-term treatment option. Also known as the 'silent thief of sight', glaucoma is an eye disease which involves the fluid pressure in the eye rising. If you fail to treat it in time, it can cause a loss of vision and even permanent blindness. In primary glaucoma cases, the cause is largely unknown. In secondary glaucoma cases, however, the condition has a known cause such as diabetes, inflammation, a cataract, or a tumor.A large number of studies have shown cannabis as a whole - even those strains high in THC - to be a viable and highly effective treatment. A 1971 study by Hepler and Frank, for example, discovered that cannabis lowered intraocular pressure (IOP) by up to 30%.The problem with using weed, though, is that you have to consume it every few hours because the effects don't last very long. In other words, you have to be stoned for most of the day. While this might seem like a pleasant way to live for some, it is not practical for most people. Also, while cannabis has a low addiction rate, using it six or more times a day would greatly increase the risk of developing a dependence on the plant.This is where CBD comes in. Cannabidiol is one of marijuana's non-intoxicating cannabinoids, and some research has suggested that it is just as useful as THC and other psychoactive compounds for the treatment of glaucoma. The Endocannabinoid System (ECS) was only discovered in 1992, but research since then has uncovered some pretty exciting things. In fact, the ECS (which is essentially the body's very own cannabinoid system) has been called 'the future of medicine' by some experts.Researchers are hoping to create medications derived from cannabinoids such as CBD that can target these ocular tissues, in an effort to reduce IOP and eventually protect retinal cells from the permanent damage that leads to blindness.Incredibly, there has been evidence for over four decades that CBD alone could help treat glaucoma. The study, published in the International Journal of Pharmacology and Biopharmacology in 1979, analyzed the effects of CBD on 16 patients with open-angle glaucoma. After taking CBD, the patients experienced a reduction in blood pressure and an increase in heart rate. Ultimately, this resulted in a decrease in IOP behind the eyes - the direct cause of glaucoma. Moreover, it was observed that the effects of CBD lasted longer in patients with hypertension.The issue now with existing cannabis-based glaucoma treatment is bioavailability. Although topical application via eyedrops works best, it still means that only 5% of an administered dose reaches the target. This is why some people have resorted to either vaping CBD (a potent means of administration for glaucoma) or taking it as an oil in an effort to ensure that more of the active compound is actually put to use. This book gives an account on everything you need to know about Glaucoma and how it can be treated using CBD Oil.Grab your Copy Now!
