Glaucoma Risk Assessment Results

Thank You for Taking Our Glaucoma Risk Assessment

Even if you aren’t experiencing symptoms or don’t have any known risk factors, glaucoma can still be silently affecting your vision. That’s why it’s often called “the silent thief of sight.”

Who’s at Higher Risk?

While anyone can develop glaucoma, certain factors increase your risk, including:

  • Age 40 and older
  • Family history of glaucoma (especially parents or siblings)
  • Elevated eye pressure (intraocular pressure)
  • African, Hispanic/Latino, or Asian descent
  • Medical conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, or migraines
  • Subtle vision changes like halos, eye pressure, or peripheral vision loss

Why Early Detection Matters

Glaucoma typically causes no early symptoms—but it can lead to permanent vision loss if left untreated. The only way to detect it early is through a comprehensive dilated eye exam.


Don’t Wait—Protect Your Vision

If it’s been more than a year since your last full eye exam, now is the perfect time to schedule one. Our experienced team uses advanced technology to detect glaucoma in its earliest stages—before it affects your sight.
