What is Glaucoma

What is Glaucoma?

Glaucoma is a common eye disease that can lead to vision loss or blindness — if not treated properly and early. Intraocular pressure (IOP) builds within the eye, which can damage the optic nerve.

Most symptoms won’t appear until irreversible vision loss has occurred, including blind spots, halos around lights, eye pain, redness, and headaches. If you’re over 60; black, Asian, or Hispanic; have a family history of glaucoma; or have certain medical conditions, you’re at higher risk.

What Cause Glaucoma?

What Causes Glaucoma?

Glaucoma results from abnormally high IOP, which can be caused by excessive fluid production, poor drainage, eye trauma, and certain medications. Increased IOP can damage the optic nerve, which sends what you see to your brain. There is no “cure” for glaucoma — but our highly trained doctors can slow or stop its progression with the help of our advanced equipment and treatment options.

We Can See It Before You Can!

Glaucoma often shows no warning signs until it has affected your sight. That makes regular eye exams essential for protecting your vision. Our skilled doctors use the latest diagnostic technology to thoroughly assess your eye health and IOP, helping them uncover glaucoma in its first stages.
