10 Glaucoma Symptoms

Symptom #9: Eye Redness
Patients with glaucoma can have red eyes caused by the whites of the eyes becoming significantly discolored. This is usually only seen in acute glaucoma which typically affects one eye.
Since the redness is only seen in one eye, it can be distinguished from joint eye redness caused by fatigue, substance abuse, and other causes. The eyelid also reddens and becomes swollen.
