Glaucoma Awareness Month: Two Locations, One Goal—Protecting Your Vision

Health,Care,,People,,Eyesight,And,Technology,Concept

Glaucoma can cause permanent vision loss if left undetected. This Glaucoma Awareness Month, Eye Contact Madison invites you to request an Eye Health Wellness Assessment at one of our two convenient locations in West and East. Early detection is key to preserving your sight.

Glaucoma: A Leading Cause of Blindness

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, which is vital for clear vision. This damage often results from increased pressure inside the eye.

What makes glaucoma especially concerning is its silent progression. The condition develops without noticeable symptoms until vision loss is advanced and irreversible. Regular assessments are critical to catching glaucoma early, before significant damage occurs.

Are You at Risk for Glaucoma?

Some individuals are more prone to developing glaucoma than others. Risk factors include:

  • Age (40 and older)
  • A family history of glaucoma
  • Pre-existing conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or thin corneas
  • Being of African American, Hispanic, or Asian heritage

If any of these factors apply to you, regular Eye Health Wellness Assessments to detect glaucoma are essential. With two convenient locations, Eye Contact Madison makes it easy to stay proactive about your eye health.

Our cutting-edge technology is available at both of our locations, so you can access top-tier glaucoma care wherever it’s most convenient for you.

Treatment Options for Glaucoma

Although vision loss from glaucoma cannot be reversed, early detection allows for effective treatment to slow or stop its progression. Depending on your needs, treatment may include:

With the right care plan, many patients can maintain clear vision and a high quality of life.
