Why Is Glaucoma Difficult to Diagnose?

One thing that sets glaucoma apart from other eye conditions is that it is generally more challenging to diagnose. Many eye conditions are easier to diagnose since they often have obvious symptoms. However, glaucoma does not have any symptoms at the very beginning, and this makes it more challenging to diagnose. Despite this, as our eye doctor in Elkton, MD, can inform you, early diagnosis and treatment of this condition are critical. This is due to the fact that glaucoma can lead to permanent vision loss. 

Why Is Early Treatment Important?

It is ideal to begin treatment early when it comes to most medical conditions. This is the case when it comes to vision conditions such as glaucoma. It is critical to begin treatment as early as possible because doing so can mean that you will not lose vision in your eyes. Obviously, this is a significant benefit. More generally, early treatment is also more effective and will help limit the damage your eyes suffer due to this condition.
