Glaucoma is as of for now, the leading cause of blindness in the world. It is a disease caused due to elevated pressure inside the eye. This damages the nerves in the optic disk( photoreceptors) causing irreversible blindness. In some cases of glaucoma (open- angle glaucoma) symptoms go unnoticed.
Although, there are treatments for glaucoma, these only help in slowing the process of blindness; but none provide a complete solution to the blindness.
