10 Causes of Glaucoma
Cause Of Glaucoma #3: Blocked Trabecular Meshwork
The fluid in the eyes is usually able to pass through the trabecular meshwork, which is tissue that is found near the base of the cornea. That the fluid can pass through these tissues helps to prevent the buildup of fluid that causes high fluid pressure in the eye. If this passageway was to become blocked, then pressure can begin to build.
This buildup of pressure is then likely to lead to glaucoma and the patient may not realize that there is a problem until they start suffering from problems with their vision. Problems with vision can be caused by a wide number of factors and it is something you should get checked out.
