CBD for glaucoma has potent neuroprotective effects on patients with this condition. Early detection of glaucoma and the immediate start of treatment with CBD can definitely restrict the progression of the disease and prevent loss of vision.
According to the Glaucoma Research Foundation, glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness.There are several extended studies done to evaluate the efficacy of different phytochemicals of cannabis. CBD is one of these active phytochemicals present in cannabis.
According to the National Eye Institute, in 2010, 2.7 million people in the U.S had glaucoma and by 2030 this will increase by 50% to 4 million (2050 - 6.3 million).People between 40 years and 80 years of age have a higher tendency to develop glaucoma. Glaucoma is an irreversible condition and until now, medical science was unable to discover any curative treatment for it. However, early detection and immediate introduction of a neuroprotective regimen to constrain the optic nerve damage can restrict the progression of glaucoma.

In 2006, a study conducted on diabetic rats reported that CBD treatment significantly inhibited p38 MAP kinase and reduced neurotoxicity, inflammation, and blood-retinal barrier breakdown.
A research paper published in 2016 reported that CBD activates the G protein-coupled receptor 18 (GPR18) to modulate the secretion of aqueous humor. In other words, it lowers eye pressure (IOP) and is therefore very effective for glaucoma treatment.
In 2018; Dinesh Thapa, Elizabeth A. Cairns et. al conducted animal research and reported that CBD has the ability to reduce corneal pain. The efficacy of anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory CBD effects was further confirmed by tests on mice.
The findings support the theory that topical application of CBD activates the 5-HT1A receptors and the cannabinoid 2 receptor, which reduce corneal pain by modulating pain signaling.
The same study report also demonstrated that other cannabinoids like 螖8THC and HU-308 also possess anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects. These contribute to the reduction of corneal pain by activating cannabinoid 1 and cannabinoid 2 receptors.
The efficacy of 螖9 THC and other active ingredients of cannabis was evaluated in another animal study. According to the findings, the topical administration of cannabinoids, including 螖9 THC has lowered intra-ocular pressure by 40%.
A small-scale clinical trial conducted in 2006 also reported that sublingual administration of Delta-9-THC and CBD provided a temporary lowering effect of the eye pressure.
A clinical trial conducted on 9 healthy male volunteers in 2017 reported that CBD was a well-tolerated substance. The author of this study concluded that CBD has a significant blood pressure lowering effect in association with increased heart rate.
A recent clinical trial report published in February 2018 demonstrated that topical application, in the form of eye drops, of a full spectrum cannabinoid extract has an anti-inflammatory effect, causing a reduction in eye pressure.
Diana from Pennsylvania reported that her eye pressure dropped from 40 to 16 (mm Hg) after using CBD for a month. She said her doctor couldn't believe it.
Al Morentin from California was steadily going blind after being diagnosed as a candidate for glaucoma in the sixth grade. When he started using cannabis oil, he stopped the decline in his eyesight and greatly relieved the pain and building pressure. However, when he ran out of the oil, he became blind in his right eye. Upon resuming the oil, his eyesight returned and he sees better today than he has in 10 years.
