About Glaucoma

Understanding Glaucoma and Why Regular Eye Tests Matter

Glaucoma is a common eye condition that damages the optic nerve, often caused by increased pressure inside the eye. It usually develops slowly and without noticeable symptoms, which is why regular eye examinations are essential for protecting your sight.

Although vision already lost cannot usually be restored, early diagnosis and treatment can help slow the progression of the disease and protect your remaining sight. At Almond Eyecare, we provide professional home eye tests for people living with glaucoma or those at increased risk.

If you are already under the care of a hospital eye clinic, we can work alongside your existing treatment by monitoring your vision, checking your spectacles, and supporting your ongoing eye health.

Who Is at Higher Risk of Glaucoma?

  • Over the age of 60
  • Family history of glaucoma
  • Raised eye pressure
  • Diabetes or certain medical conditions
  • African, Caribbean, or Asian heritage
  • Previous eye injuries
  • Long-term steroid use
