January is Glaucoma Awareness Month. According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in adults aged 60 and older. This condition requires early detection and proper care to protect vision. Glaucoma occurs when fluid builds up in the eye, increasing pressure and damaging the optic nerve. While the damage caused by glaucoma is permanent, treatments are available to help prevent further vision loss. These images show a progression of glaucoma. If you have any concerns about your eye health or treatment options, it is important to consult with your ophthalmologist. Early action can make all the difference. VD: Each image features a pup and shows the progression of glaucoma. (Cont. in comments) #guidedogfoundation #glaucoma #glaucomaawareness #guidedog #lowvision #blind
