Learn more about holistic treatment of glaucoma.

Researchers looked at blood levels of Vitamin C and Thiamine (B1) in glaucoma patients. They found that the patients with chronic open angle glaucoma patients had a far lower thiamine blood level than controls and related poor absorption of that thiamine. However there were not distinct differences between the controls and the vitamin C blood levels.
