Glaucoma
About This Condition
The term glaucoma describes a group of eye conditions that are usually associated with increased intra-ocular pressure (pressure within the eyeball).
In many cases, the cause of glaucoma is unknown. Conventional medications are frequently effective in reducing intra-ocular pressure. Therefore, it is important for people with glaucoma to be under the care of an ophthalmologist.
Symptoms
Because glaucoma may not cause any symptoms until it has reached an advanced and irreversible stage, regular eye examinations are recommended, especially after age 40. In the later stages, symptoms include loss of peripheral (side) vision, blurred vision, blind spots, seeing halos around lights, and poor night vision. If left untreated, glaucoma may cause blindness.
