Can be tell you about glucoma?

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to increased intraocular pressure, which can lead to vision loss or blindness if untreated. It is often asymptomatic in its early stages, making regular eye exams crucial for early detection. There are several types of glaucoma, with the most common being open-angle glaucoma. Treatment options include medications, laser therapy, and surgery to lower eye pressure and preserve vision.
