Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve head, and it may be associated with raised intraocular pressure.
As we get older, the risk of us developing glaucoma also increases and the most common type of glaucoma is what we call primary open-angle glaucoma.
The problem is with primary open-angle glaucoma is that you can gradually develop loss of vision without even knowing.
There may be no symptoms and it’s what we call the sneak thief of sight.
