GLAUCOMA AWARENESS MONTH

January is National Glaucoma Awareness Month. Over 3 million Americans and over 60 million people worldwide have glaucoma. It is estimated that 4.5 million people worldwide are blind due to this sneaky disease. What's scary? Half of the people who have glaucoma aren't even aware that they have it.

With the help of yearly eye exams, you are more likely to catch glaucoma before it's too late.

The human eye is a complicated organ and many disorders can affect its function.

Retinal detachment is a serious and sight-threatening condition that affects one in every 300 people at some time in their lives. It can be treated with early action, but first, patients need to be able to recognize the warning signs.

Clear eyesight requires all of the intricate parts and systems of the eye to work together.
If one thing goes wrong inside the eye, it is often enough to seriously impact eyesight and the health of the eye. For example, we don’t often think much about the fluid inside the eye, but that fluid has to stay within a very narrow pressure range. If the pressure rises, it can damage the ocular nerve, causing permanent vision loss. This is the basic process of glaucoma.

An underrated ingredient of a good quality of life is healthy eyesight. As many as one in six adults struggle with sight-threatening eye conditions and far more than that live with some level of vision loss as they get older. There’s a lot we can do to minimize our chances of developing an eye condition.
