What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, usually due to abnormally high pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure). Left untreated, it can lead to permanent, irreversible vision loss.
Common risk factors include:
- Age above 40
- Family history of glaucoma
- Diabetes or hypertension
- High eye pressure
- Previous eye injury
Vision loss from glaucoma cannot be reversed, but it can be prevented from progressing further with timely diagnosis and consistent treatment. Regular eye pressure checks — especially after age 40 or with risk factors like diabetes — are strongly recommended.
