GLAUCOMA is a condition of the eye in which the optic nerve is damaged. In many cases, this damage is associated with a rise in pressure within the eye. A clear fluid called aqueous humor produced inside the eye has to flow out of the eye through the angle. When a block to the outflow of aqueous humor occurs, the pressure inside the eye increases. The sustained increase in the pressure causes glaucoma.
