At MiVision, we’re proud to offer glaucoma diagnosis and treatment for patients in Gladwin County, MI. Because glaucoma often develops without pain or early symptoms, regular eye exams are essential for detecting it before vision loss occurs.
What is a Glaucoma?
Glaucoma is an eye disease that damages the optic nerve, often due to increased eye pressure. Left untreated, it can lead to irreversible vision loss. Regular exams with an eye doctor are key to catching it early.
Symptoms to Watch For
Gradual loss of side (peripheral) vision
Halos or glare around lights
Eye discomfort or pressure
Blurry or dim vision
How We Diagnose Glaucoma
We use advanced diagnostic tools to detect glaucoma in its early stages:
Tonometry: measures eye pressure
Optic nerve imaging: monitors nerve health
Visual field testing: checks side vision loss
OCT scans: capture detailed images of retinal structures
