A glaucoma treatment device applies electrolysis into an eye has a plurality of electrodes connected to a voltage source, and a controller coupled to a pressure sensor. The electrodes apply an electric field within an eye, and the controller regulates the delivery of current to the electrodes based on intraocular pressure measurements from the pressure sensor. The device has an enclosure for the pressure sensor, controller, and voltage source. The voltage source can recharge via an external source and the controller can accept adjustments remotely. The device also operates as a component in a method to convert aqueous humor into gas. The method utilizes electrolysis to reduce the volume of fluid in the anterior chamber of an eye. The method modulates electric current during usage of the invention. The method and device combine to reduce intraocular pressure within an eye thus lessening the progression of glaucoma.
