ANSWER MY HEALTH QUESTION




Answer My Health Question is a service provided by Dr. Carolina Valdivia that focuses on glaucoma and other eye diseases, general eye care, and other related health conditions.







On this page, I provide my responses to questions that have been submitted by visitors to glaucoma-eye-info.com. When I first started this website, I only posted questions with my answers to them that pertained specifically to a topic on one of the main pages, and only if it advanced that discussion in some way. These questions are identified by the now familiar question mark icon shown below and are peppered throughout this website.

Interrogative


However, as the website has matured, I have rethought this policy. It occurred to me that I have received a number of very interesting questions for which either they are difficult to locate within existing content or are complex and require a more substantive response from me.
I also have received a number of general health questions and questions about diseases that are related to eye problems, such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis, hypertension, kidney disease, and thyroid disease.

The dialogue that I have had with individuals submitting these questions potentially could be of great benefit to other visitors to glaucoma-eye-info.com. For this reason, I have decided to organize those questions here.

As always, I am strongly committed to protecting your privacy. I always secure permission from the author of a question before it is posted on this website. Moreover, except for gender and age, no other identifying information is presented with a question. For additional information, please refer to the privacy policy page for glaucoma-eye-info.com

I hope that you will find Answer My Health Question useful.
