Question
I’ve recently been experiencing blurred vision and went to the hospital for a check-up. They said I have glaucoma. I’d like to know if glaucoma can be treated?
Answer
Glaucoma is an eye disease that develops rapidly, poses significant risks, and can lead to sudden blindness. It occurs due to intermittent or sustained elevated intraocular pressure, which causes damage to various tissues of the eye, leading to optic nerve atrophy, narrowing of the field of vision, and a decline in vision.
