Report

Glaucoma is a complicated disease in which damage to the optic nerve results in vision loss. There are several forms of glaucoma. The two most common forms are primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and angle-closure glaucoma (ACG). Angle-closure glaucoma is caused by blocked drainage canals in the eye, resulting in a sudden rise in intraocular pressure.
