Glaucoma

An estimated 3 million Americans are affected by glaucoma, with 120,000 blind due to the disease. Glaucoma is the second-leading cause of blindness in the United States. In other parts of the world, where glaucoma treatment is less available, glaucoma ranks as the leading cause of blindness.
