Early detection saves sight: glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that can cause vision loss and blindness. The disease is caused by nerve damage. Almost 3 million Americans suffer from glaucoma. Sometimes symptoms are very small or non-existent, so it is best to get your eyes checked every year for prevention. The Texas Talking Book Program (TBP) provides free books and magazines in audio and braille for Texans with glaucoma.
