Glaucoma- “A Silent Thief of Vision”

At Envision Ophthalmology and Wellness, we prioritize your eye health and well-being. As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive care, we want to ensure you are informed about the importance of regular eye exams and understanding the signs and symptoms of glaucoma.

Glaucoma is often referred to as the “silent thief of sight” because it typically progresses slowly and without noticeable symptoms until irreversible damage has occurred. However, being aware of the signs and symptoms can lead to early detection and treatment, preserving your vision for years to come.

Signs and Symptoms of Glaucoma may include:

  • Gradual loss of peripheral vision
  • Blurred vision
  • Seeing halos around lights
  • Severe eye pain
  • Headaches
  • Nausea or vomiting

If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to schedule an appointment with us promptly for a comprehensive evaluation. Early detection and management are key in preventing vision loss associated with glaucoma.

We want to remind you of the importance of scheduling your yearly eye exam. Even if you aren’t experiencing any symptoms, regular check-ups are vital for detecting potential eye conditions, including glaucoma, in their early stages when treatment is most effective.

At Envision Ophthalmology and Wellness, we offer a personalized and comfortable experience in a private setting as part of our concierge practice. Our dedicated team is here to provide you with the highest quality of care, tailored to your individual needs.

Don’t wait until symptoms arise – take proactive steps to safeguard your vision by scheduling your yearly eye exam today. Together, we can work towards maintaining optimal eye health for a lifetime.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
