AI overview

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve (which sends visual information from your eye to your brain) and can cause vision loss if left untreated. It's often called the "silent thief of sight" because vision loss typically happens slowly over time, and increased eye pressure is a major risk factor, with age, family history, and certain medical conditions increasing your chances of developing it.
