Glaucoma  Evaluations

Did you know? Open-angle glaucoma accounts for nearly ninety percent of all glaucoma cases in the US. This type of glaucoma is typically painless and does not have acute attacks. 

The only signs are progressive (gradual) visual field loss which usually go unnoticed and optic nerve changes which can only be detected in a thorough
eye examination.
