Glaucoma refers to a group of diseases that tend to damage the optic nerve, resulting in vision loss and blindness. It is usually caused due to fluid building up in the anterior part of the eye, which increases pressure inside the eye. It can affect people of all ages but is most common in adults aged between 70 to 80 years. If not treated, people with glaucoma slowly lose their peripheral vision and miss objects to the side and out of the corner of their eye. Over time, straight-ahead vision may decrease until no vision remains.
