What Is Glaucoma?
10. Long-Term Outlook
If glaucoma is not treated in its early stages, chances are that its victim will ultimately go blind. This is the reason why it is important to undergo a regular eye checkup after the age of 40.
This helps to detect any increase in intraocular pressure so that it is controlled from early on. When this is done, a person with glaucoma can preserve their vision and lead a relatively normal life.
