Glaucoma is an eye condition that damages the optic nerve, often due to increased eye pressure. If not treated on time, it can lead to permanent vision loss. 1. Sudden Sight Loss A rapid decrease in vision can occur, especially in acute glaucoma. This is a medical emergency and needs immediate attention. 2. Redness in the Eyes The eye may appear red due to increased pressure or inflammation inside the eye. 3. Blurred and Narrowed Vision Blurred vision: You may see unclear or hazy images. Narrowed vision (Tunnel vision): Loss of side (peripheral) vision, making it feel like you're looking through a tunnel. 4. Severe Eye and Head Pain High eye pressure can cause intense pain in the eye, often spreading to the head and sometimes accompanied by nausea.
