Glaucoma
Eye Health Channel

Glaucoma occurs when there is elevated intraocular pressure within the eye. This pressure causes optic nerve damage and gradual peripheral vision loss.

Because there are usually no symptoms in the early stages of glaucoma, it is important to have regular vision tests in order to catch glaucoma before it leads to vision loss.

Our guide to glaucoma discusses causes, treatment options, and answers commonly asked questions.
