Glaucoma is a complicated ocular disease whereby elevated intraocular pressure damages the optic nerve causing vision loss. There are different types of glaucoma and often there are no symptoms. There is currently no cure for glaucoma, but there are treatment options if it’s detected early enough. If you experience any of the following symptoms, you should seek immediate help: Loss of peripheral or side vision, tunnel vision, seeing halos around lights, sudden vision loss, or a cloudy-looking cornea. Optometrists are trained to test and interpret for glaucoma with specific qualified instrumentation.
