What is Understanding Acute and Chronic Glaucoma about?

Glaucoma is a disease that damages the optic nerve and causes progressive, irreversible vision loss. There are two main types: acute glaucoma occurs suddenly when fluid drainage from the eye is blocked, causing eye pressure to rise rapidly; chronic glaucoma develops gradually as fluid drainage is slowly blocked, increasing eye pressure over time if left untreated. Treatment depends on the type but generally involves eye drops, oral medications, or surgery to lower pressure and prevent further nerve damage.
