Glaucoma is the leading cause of preventable blindness. While there is no cure for glaucoma and vision lost cannot be regained, early detection is the best way to protect your sight.
Those at higher risk include people of African, Asian, and Hispanic descent. Other high-risk groups include: people over 60, family history of glaucoma, diabetics, and people who are severely nearsighted.
Help spread the word about this sight-stealing disease and raise awareness about the importance of regular eye examinations to preserve vision. For more information visit http://www.glaucoma.org
