January is Glaucoma Awareness Month. Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of vision loss, especially among older adults, and it often develops without early warning signs.
This group of eye conditions damages the optic nerve, most commonly due to increased pressure inside the eye. Because vision loss from glaucoma is permanent, early detection is the most powerful tool we have.
At Independent Health Solutions, we believe protecting sight helps protect independence, safety, and quality of life, especially for those aging at home. And awareness is an essential part of it. 🩵🧡
