Your long-term vision could be at risk if you suffer from Glaucoma and leave it untreated. Glaucoma is a condition that causes fluid in the eye to build up. It happens because the fluid is unable to fully drain. When the fluid builds up it puts pressure on the optic nerve which slowly damages the optic nerve and causes long-term vision loss. Glaucoma symptoms are often slight and go un-noticed, especially at the beginning so as you age it is important to go for regular eye checks.
If you start experiencing a loss of peripheral vision, get it checked out immediately. this is one of the most common symptoms of Glaucoma. Using medication eye drops is normally enough to control the degeneration of the optic nerve and there are a few different choices of eye drops to decide upon.
