How To Cure Glaucoma In Left Eye And Loss Of Vision?

My husband has glaucoma in his left eye. He has field vision loss, but also his lens prescription is changing rapidly, his eye is red, eyelid is swollen, & some loss of color vision. All only in his left eye. He went to a glaucoma specialist who ordered an MRI. What could he suspect is causing these symptoms. Please level with me, I want to be well informed in order to help my husband face whatever the diagnosis may be.
