It's glaucoma awareness month. Did you know that glaucoma is often called the silent-sight-stealer as the first signs can be problems in your field of vision.
Glaucoma is a condition where the pressure inside the eye builds up much like an over inflated tyre. This pressure then affects the delicate nerves and light receptors within the eye.
It's important to get your eyes checked regularly, especially if you have family members who have had glaucoma. At Kerk Davies Opticians we use a method of testing eye presure that doesn't involve the puff of air test.
