Glaucoma: The Silent Threat to Vision
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve and gradually lead to vision loss. One of the biggest concerns is that glaucoma may have no noticeable symptoms in its early stages, so a person can have the disease without realizing it.
As glaucoma progresses, it can affect side (peripheral) vision, and untreated disease can eventually cause severe vision loss. Regular comprehensive eye examinations are therefore important, particularly for people at higher risk, such as those with a family history of glaucoma or older adults.
The message for the public is simple:
Don't wait for vision loss to get your eyes checked. Early detection and timely treatment can help protect the vision you have.
