Glaucoma damages the optic nerve — often with no warning signs — and is a leading cause of irreversible blindness. Early detection and treatment can protect your vision for life.
Glaucoma is usually caused by increased pressure inside the eye that slowly damages the optic nerve, the cable that carries images from your eye to your brain. Because it typically starts at the edges of your vision and progresses painlessly, most people don't notice it until significant, permanent damage has occurred.
That's why glaucoma is called the 'silent thief of sight' — and why routine screening is the only reliable way to catch it in time.
We screen for glaucoma with comprehensive exams and advanced diagnostics that measure eye pressure and assess the optic nerve. If we detect glaucoma, treatment may include prescription eye drops, laser procedures, or other options to lower eye pressure and halt further damage.
Because glaucoma damage can't be reversed, our goal is always to catch it early and protect the vision you still have.
