Poor guy, Glaucoma is one of the most painful things a dog can go through & I'm surprised that with no treatment, they didn't burst as is the case very often. If the meds don't work they may try other meds & if they don't work then they will remove the eye/s. Again just like with those nasty painful teeth, he will not miss them & it sounds like he's not able to see anything at all now anyways. I know it sounds horrible but I promise it's really not as bad as it sounds & he will just feel that much better afterwards. My Gracie came home after her removal with a cast on her front leg & a cone on her little head & ran & rolled all over the yard the same day of surgery. She was just so happy to get rid of that horrible pain in her sweet little head. Do you remember Lou's Cassy ? She had the same thing & it was causing her so much pain & she was a diff dog after the removal of that eye & remained happy & comfy till near the very end of her life. Whatever happens he will do well & you will once again be in awe at the courage of a senior dog.
