What is the most important thing I need to know about glaucoma?
Glaucoma is a long term disease and is treatable. However, a long term commitment to the inconvenience of using eye drops, regular doctor visits and tests is necessary. Most of the patients do not go blind from glaucoma, especially when they are under doctor’s care. You can enjoy your life without fear of loosing your sight. Also, remember that you play a very important role by informing your family members about your eye condition, so they can be aware of the possibly hereditary disease.
