Glaucoma is a disease that damages the optic the nerve of the eye. It generally develops when fluids develop in the front part of the eye. The fluid will increase the intraocular pressure in the eye damaging the cranial nerve – two. The condition may be diagnosed by assessing the back of the eye for optic nerve injury or by knowing the intraocular pressure of the eye. The risk factors of glaucoma like age, hereditary risk cannot be prevented.
