Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, essential for good vision. This damage is often caused by abnormally high intraocular pressure (IOP). Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide, especially among people over 60. However, with early detection and appropriate treatment, significant vision loss can often be prevented.
