Glaucoma / Low Vision
Glaucoma is not a singular eye disease. It is a term for several eye conditions that can damage your optic nerve. The optic nerve is the nerve that supplies visual information to your brain from your eyes. Glaucoma is usually (but not always) the result of abnormally high pressure inside your eye. As time goes on, the increased pressure can erode the optic nerve tissue. This may lead to vision loss or even blindness. If diagnosed in the early stages of the disease, treatment can be initiated and you may be able to prevent further damage.
