Glaucoma |
Who are at risk for glaucoma?
Your ophthalmologist considers several sources of information to determine your risk of developing the disease. The most important risk factors include: age, elevated eye pressure, family history of glaucoma, diabetes, nearsightedness, and high blood pressure.
How is glaucoma detected?
Regular eye examinations by your ophthalmologist are the best way to detect glaucoma. Your ophthalmologist will measure pressure within the eye, inspect the drainage angle, evaluate optic nerve damage, and test your peripheral vision.
