Glaucoma can make you blind
Glaucoma, the second cause of blindness worldwide, is known as an eye disease that usually progresses secretly without symptoms.
In order to avoid glaucoma, which can cause permanent vision loss if left untreated, it is important for individuals at risk to have their eye pressure checked once a year.
The incidence of this disease, which is 4 to 9 times higher in people with a family history of glaucoma than the general average, is recommended by experts, especially for these people and individuals over the age of 40, to have their eye pressure checked regularly every year.
