Glaucoma is one type of eye
disease with indirect symptoms, which gradually cause eyesight eyesight will
decrease more and eventually the eyes will become blind.
This is because the fluid
channel coming out of the eyeball is blocked so that the eyeball will enlarge
and the eyeball will suppress the nerve of the eye that is behind the eyeball
that eventually the eye nerve does not get blood flow so that the eye nerve
will die.
The main cause of glaucoma
is increased eyeball pressure above 20mmHg, other causes are hypertension and
diabetes mellitus. Although rarely can also be caused by unstable emotions,
migraines, narrowing of blood vessels and others.
Eyeball pressure above
normal that will continue to damage the visual nerve, but often not realized by
the patient, because the damage little by little, therefore need eye
examination, if it has aged 40 years and over. Eyeball pressure above normal in
the early stages will be given eye drops to lower the pressure of the eyeball
to normal.
