Glokom, or glaucoma, is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often due to increased pressure in the eye. This condition can lead to vision loss if not treated. It is commonly associated with aging, but can also affect younger individuals. Regular eye exams are essential for early detection and management. There are different types of glokom, including open-angle and angle-closure glaucoma. Symptoms may not be noticeable in the early stages, making routine check-ups important. Treatment options include medications, laser therapy, and surgery to help lower eye pressure and protect vision.
