Traumatic Glaucoma

Traumatic glaucoma is a form of glaucoma that can develop following an injury to the eye. This injury can cause changes in the structures that regulate fluid drainage within the eye, leading to increased eye pressure. Elevated pressure can damage the optic nerve, potentially affecting vision. Symptoms might include blurred vision, eye pain, or seeing halos around lights. Treatment often involves medications to lower eye pressure, and in some cases, surgery may be necessary to restore proper drainage. It's essential to seek prompt care if you experience eye trauma to prevent further complications.
