Glaucoma is hereditary; understanding your family history, regular eye check-ups and regular exercise help to prevent and slow down the oxidative stress of the eye and play a role in the prevention of glaucoma.

🔹Diabetes is associated with retinopathy and blindness, therefore, maintaining your blood sugar level within an acceptable range is important for the eye health

🔹Eat food rich in vitamins A, C and D

Is glaucoma curable? Is it treatable? How can it be treated? 👁👀

🔹Early detection is key.

🔹Avoid self-diagnosis and self-medication; visit the nearest clinic at the slightest onset of the symptoms.
