  3. Glaucoma is defined as a complicated disease in which damage to the optic nerve leads to vision loss. Several types of glaucoma have been witnessed, but the two most common types are angle-closure glaucoma (ACG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Symptoms of POAG include slowly developing sight loss for many years. The moment a patient is aware of vision loss, the disease is quite advanced. Vision loss from glaucoma is irreversible with treatment, including surgery. It is significant to see a doctor for regular eye examinations even if you experience few warning signs or symptoms.
    On the other hand, the symptoms of acute angle-closure glaucoma include blurred vision or hazy, head and eye pain, vomiting or nausea, and the appearance of rainbow-colored circles around bright lights, and sudden sight loss. It is well-known that the risk of glaucoma increases with age. If you want to learn more about glaucoma and its syndromes, visit SimpliHealth for more helpful information, where Dr. Anin Sethi can guide you with proper medications and treatment.
