my mother is 59 years old .she is suffering from glaucoma for last 2 years.should she work on computers.?

Question:

please suggest some natural remedy for glaucoma

Answers:
Glaucoma is a eye condition that has the potential of causing blindness if it is not treated adequately. In general, the eye pressure should be reduced using glaucoma eye drops to a level at least 20% below the highest recorded eye pressure level. Regular 4 to 6 monthly eye examinations with a eye doctor are a must.

Using the eyes, whether working on computers or watching TV or reading books will NOT cause worsening of glaucoma. Your mother can work on the computer as much as she wants. I suspect you probably don't want to share your computer time with her ;>

Natural remedies for glaucoma - aerobic exercises help. That means brisk walking for a mile or so every day (medical condition permitting - talk to your doctor). There is some evidence that Ginkgo biloba extract are beneficial. A healthy diet and vitamins are useful too. Acupuncture benefit is speculative.

What not to do: drink less caffeine, don't do head stands (upside down posture) as in some Yoga postures.

Bottom line: The management is medical with close regular follow up.

Other Answers:
I dont know of any natural remedy for galucoma. You really need to let an Opthamologist take care of your mothers problem. Ask the doctor if she should be working on computers.
