How long does it take to go blind from glaucoma?

Glaucoma is generally considered a slow-progressing disease of the eye. In the most common form of glaucoma, primary open-angle glaucoma, damage to the retinal cells occurs quite slowly. Untreated glaucoma can progress to blindness within several years.

What Should glaucoma patients avoid?

How quickly does glaucoma progress?

In the most common form of glaucoma, primary open-angle glaucoma, damage to the retinal cells occurs quite slowly. Untreated glaucoma can progress to blindness within several years. Acute angle-closure glaucoma is a less common form that can impair vision much more quickly.

What can be mistaken for glaucoma?

Conditions that can be mistaken for glaucoma include compressive or infiltrative lesions of the optic nerve, previous ischemic optic neuropathy (both arteritic and non-arteritic), congenital and hereditary optic neuropathies, post-traumatic optic neuropathy and inflammatory and demyelinating optic neuritis.

Can you tell if someone has glaucoma?

If they think you have glaucoma, your eye doctor will check your optic nerve for signs of damage. They’ll have you take a test that measures the sharpness of your side vision (they’ll call this your peripheral vision). Special images (OCT) of the nerve that form the optic nerve can give clues to presence of glaucoma.
