What are signs of glaucoma?
Glaucoma can be acute or chronic and both have high intraocular pressure which is higher in acute than chronic. Chronic glaucoma is the most common type and the patient will not feel any thing until the disease is advanced with constriction in the peripheral visual field that increase gradually till the patient only see through the center of his vision. The acute type which is due to angle closure glaucoma comes with red eye, increase tearing, photophobia or light sensitivity, severe pain that radiate to the head causing headache, nausea, vomiting, blurring of vision due to corneal edema. Acute glaucoma is a medical emergency that should be treated as soon as possible.
Does Hyperopia increase the chance for glaucoma?
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.
