The person affected is not aware they have it: open-angle glaucoma is detected by an optician or eye doctor. It is usually caused by an increase in pressure within your eye.

Glaucoma damages the eye's optic nerve. It is a leading cause of blindness in the United States. It usually happens when the fluid pressure inside the eyes slowly rises, damaging the optic nerve. Often there are no symptoms at first, but a comprehensive eye exam can detect it.
An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function . The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches. (dictionary of visual science, 4th ed)
Clinical Information. A condition in which there is a build-up of fluid in the eye, which presses on the retina and the optic nerve. The retina is the layer of nerve tissue inside the eye that senses light and sends images along the optic nerve to the brain.
early treatment can help protect your eyes against vision loss. Treatments usually include prescription eyedrops and/or surgery. nih: national eye institute. Group of diseases characterized by increased intraocular pressure resulting in damage to the optic nerve and retinal nerve fibers.
