What Is Glaucoma?

It is a condition that causes damage to optic nerve which transmits images to our brain and damage visual field loss. It occurs due to increase of intra ocular pressure which block the trabecular meshwork (aqueous humour out flow).
If the damage continues, glaucoma can lead to permanent sight loss. If treatment delay, glaucoma can cause total permanent blindness within years.

Most people with glaucoma have no early symptoms or pain. You need to see your eye doctor regularly so she can diagnose and treat glaucoma before long-term visual loss happens.

Over 40 years age and one have a family history of the glucoma should get a complete ocular check up from an eye doctor every 1 to 2 years.
