The pressure within the eye(s) builds up causing horrible pain. once you're diagnosed you move to California, and find a doctor looking to make an extra 50 bucks. nee you end that Dr. get him to write you a lifetime prescription for medical marijuana.

Chronic Glaucoma refers to open-angle glaucoma, where the increase in eye pressure happens slowly over time without obvious symptoms initially. Acute Glaucoma refers to angle-closure glaucoma, which occurs suddenly with severe symptoms like pain, redness, and blurred vision, requiring urgent medical attention.
Yes, hyperopia (farsightedness) can increase the risk of developing angle-closure glaucoma, especially in older adults. This happens because farsighted eyes often have a shallower anterior chamber, which can lead to blocked fluid drainage and increased eye pressure. If you have hyperopia and are concerned about glaucoma, "Kvitle Eye Care" offers comprehensive glaucoma services to help detect and manage the condition early.
Glaucoma is not contagious.

But the patient won't feel it. The open-angle glaucoma is pretty generic. It means you will be at higher risk if your parents or grandparents had open-angle glaucoma. The outcome of optic nerve damage is patients see a blind spot in their vision.
