Increased pressure in the eyeball due to obstruction of the outflow of aqueous humor.
Glaucoma is a group of diseases that can damage the optic nerve of one, or both, of your eyes. This can result in vision loss. There are different types of glaucoma, but the most common type is open-angle glaucoma. Other less common types include angle-closure glaucoma, and congenital glaucoma.
You may not have any symptoms of glaucoma. Regular eye exams by an eye care provider can check for glaucoma and other eye problems to help protect your vision. Treatments that lower eye pressure help slow the disease. Without treatment, glaucoma can eventually lead to blindness.

🔬 Every other disease: Most diseases come from a mix of the genes we inherit, the environment and way we live, and the passing of time.
General information about every other disease, reviewed by people; it does not describe any one person. Below: the evidence for glaucoma itself.
AI reads the targets, drugs, trials and papers below and writes where the science stands — every claim cited. It is shared with everyone who opens glaucoma.
Green labels: what the target is known to be druggable by. The score combines genetics, somatic mutations, drugs, expression and literature.
AI Cure shows public evidence (Open Targets, ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, openFDA, DepMap, AlphaFold) with its source, and AI summaries that cite it — not medical advice and not a cure. Treatment decisions belong with your doctor. Research ideas are shared only with approved researchers and labs, who can test them.
