Left untreated, Glaucoma can cause irreversible vision loss.

This is a severe disease responsible for many cases of preventable blindness worldwide.

Glaucoma occurs due to ischaemic damage to the optic nerve, often associated with elevated intra-ocular pressure.

Australians 65 years and older are recommended to visit an optometrist every year for a comprehensive eye examination.

Those with a family history of Glaucoma are advised to have their eyes examined every two years, starting at 40 years of age.

At Tropic Optics, our optometrist assesses every patient for glaucoma at their regular scheduled eye exam.

Early detection and referral for treatment reduces the potential loss of vision caused by this disease.
