Glaucoma may cause blindness. Blurred vision is just the starting sign of serious eye problems. You should be careful about this. I suggest you to have your eyes checked regularly by your eye doctor to prevent blindness. I also heard that the person who has glaucoma can protect the eyes from serious vision loss with early and timely treatment.

Glaucoma can damage the optic nerve of our eyes and result in vision loss or even blindness. To have our eye problems diagnosed at the beginning of the disease is a good way to prevent blindness. We should have a comprehensive dilated eye exam regularly. And it helps to slow the progression by lowering eye pressure in the early stages of glaucoma can save our vision.
