Glaucoma is a long-lasting, permanent condition that does not cause immediate blindness. Glaucoma is a disease that damages the eye's optic nerve. This disease is often called the sneak thief of sight because it usually has no warning signs except for gradual loss of eyesight over time. However, regular eye exams, early detection, and treatment, can preserve eye sight.
Patients with glaucoma can maintain 20/20 eyesight, but will see dark patches in their field of vision that can become bigger if glaucoma gets worse. There is no cure for glaucoma, but there are many different treatment options that help prevent the loss of sight caused by high eye pressure and glaucoma. Ophthalmologists can control eye pressure with regular eye exams and continued treatment.
