Question

What is glaucoma, and what causes it?

Answer

Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by abnormally high or continuously rising intraocular pressure. Elevated eye pressure can damage various parts of the eye and visual function, leading to vision decline and narrowing of the field of vision, even blindness. Since the causes of glaucoma are diverse, it is essential to identify the cause before treatment and adopt targeted treatment methods for effectiveness. In addition, daily care is also very important; it is recommended to eat less spicy food and more foods beneficial to the eyes.
