Glaucoma: The Silent Thief of Sight

Glaucoma is a group of diseases that affect the optic nerve in the eye which can result in irreversible vision loss. It is one of the leading causes of blindness, affecting more than 450,000 Canadians.

There are several types of glaucoma that present different symptoms. By far, the most common type of glaucoma is called primary open-angle glaucoma. It is known as the silent theft of sight because there are no symptoms in its early stages.

The scar thing? People with early stage glaucoma are often not aware of it themselves until it progresses to the later stages. As the condition progresses, it leads to a loss of side vision or peripheral vision and eventually tunnel vision which may interfere with daily activities such as driving. If left untreated, permanent vision loss may occur.

The good news? Early stage glaucoma can be detected during a routine eye exam.

Early detection and treatment is crucial in preventing progression towards vision loss.

SEE you optometrist routinely ; )
