The following information is about Glaucoma.
Glaucoma Defined
Glaucoma is a disease that causes fluid to accumulate in the eye, increasing the pressure inside. Glaucoma can be treated in a variety of ways, and early treatment can keep the pressure in the eye under control to help reduce vision loss. Eventually, glaucoma can damage the eye’s optic nerve, which carries information from the eye to the brain, resulting in blindness.
