Disease/Condition Glossary

Glaucoma: Glaucoma is an eye condition that occurs when the optic nerve, which connects the eye to the brain, is injured. It is usually caused by a build-up of fluid in the front of the eye, which raises the pressure inside the eye. Glaucoma can cause vision loss if it is not detected and treated early.

Ocular hypertension: Ocular hypertension is the accumulation of pressure in the eye caused by insufficient aqueous humour outflow (fluid inside the eye that maintains normal pressure).
