Glaucoma can Silently Blind you: Learn how to save your Sight on World Glaucoma Day

On World Glaucoma Day, it's time to shine a light on the silent sight stealer - glaucoma. This eye condition is notorious for its stealthy approach, often remaining unnoticed until significant vision loss occurs. But worry not, because Indira Gandhi Eye Hospitals is here to arm you with knowledge and solutions. As the leading eye care hospital in Gurugram & Delhi, we're on a mission to turn the tide against glaucoma and safeguard your precious vision.

Unveiling Glaucoma: The Invisible Threat

Imagine an enemy that's always lurking but never shows itself until it's too late. That's glaucoma for you. It's a group of eye conditions that can damage the optic nerve, essential for clear vision, primarily due to increased pressure within the eye. Without timely intervention, glaucoma can lead to irreversible damage. But here's the good news: with early detection and proper care, you can protect your sight.

Glaucoma: Know the Variants

Glaucoma comes in different forms, each with its nuances:

  • Open-angle Glaucoma: This common variant acts like a slow drain, causing fluid buildup and pressure increase over time.

  • Angle-closure Glaucoma: Less common but more acute, this type can cause rapid vision loss if not addressed immediately.

High-risk individuals, especially those over 60, with a family history of glaucoma, or those who've experienced eye injuries, should be particularly vigilant.
