Visionaries in Glaucoma Care
More than 3 million Americans navigate a world that gradually dims with the shadows of glaucoma. But amid the uncertainty, there is hope. The specialists at ReFocus Eye Health in Branford provide advanced glaucoma solutions, safeguarding your eye health and vision.
Insights Into Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, vital for good vision. This damage is often caused by abnormally high pressure in the eye (interocular pressure) due to a buildup of aqueous humor, the clear fluid that circulates inside the eye. The condition typically progresses slowly, and in the early stages, it often has no noticeable symptoms, earning it the nickname “the silent thief of sight.” Regular eye examinations are crucial for early detection and management, as timely intervention can prevent or slow vision loss.
What Increases Your Risk?
Stay aware of the factors that elevate your risk:
- Age, especially after 40
- A family history of glaucoma
- Elevated intraocular pressure
- Certain ethnic groups
- Medical conditions like diabetes and hypertension
- Past eye injuries
- Abnormally thin corneas
