Acording to National Programme for Control of Blindness,Glaucoma is third largest cause for blindness.
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss.The most common type is open-angle glaucoma with less common types including closed-angle glaucoma and normal-tension glaucoma.
Open-angle glaucoma develops slowly over time and there is no pain. Side vision may begin to decrease followed by central vision resulting in blindness if not treated.Closed-angle glaucoma can present gradually or suddenly. The sudden presentation may involve severe eye pain, blurred vision, mid-dilated pupil, redness of the eye, and nausea. Vision loss from glaucoma, once it has occurred, is permanent.
