6 Symptoms Warning Signs of “Glaucoma” to Seek Treatment Immediately
Who says “Glaucoma” is not scary… don’t be complacent because glaucoma doesn’t only occur in the elderly. Young adults like us office workers are also at risk.
- Blurred vision, not sharp, unclear, unable to see image details clearly
- Nausea and vomiting due to increased pressure inside the eyeball
- Seeing rainbow-colored halos radiating around light sources
- Red eyes caused by increased eye pressure, leading to swollen, inflamed, and red blood vessels
- Eye pain and beginning to lose vision, frequent eye pain, feeling like someone is squeezing the eyeball tightly
- Open-angle glaucoma, where eye pressure gradually increases without any pain symptoms
Although there is no clear scientific evidence that prolonged computer use causes glaucoma, there are risk factors, especially for those with severe nearsightedness. However, this is only a hypothesis… If you notice blind spots developing in your vision, remember that if these spots expand to cover the entire visual field, there is a risk of blindness in the future.
