WHAT IS GLUCOMA?

(1/1)

shahina:



 GLAUCOMA, which is buildup of fluid in the eye.

Normally the eye's natural fluids drain away a little at a time, and the eye stays healthy. In eyes impaired with glaucoma the fluid does not drain properly, and the buildup affects vision; blindness can sometimes result. In some cases drugs can be used to treat glaucoma.
