Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss. A major risk factor is increased pressure in the eye. The disorders can be roughly divided into two main categories:  open-angle  and  closed-angle  (or  angle closure ) glaucoma.laucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss.

Q: A geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading is A: A geochemical cycle that cycles material by mantle convection, subduction, and seafloor spreading is TECTONIC. Weegy: erosion. The rock cycle includes the formation, breakdown, and reformation of a rock as a result of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic processes.
mantle convection. convection currents in the mantle that occur because hot rock in the lower part of the mantle is less dense and rises, and cooler rock in the upper part of the mantle cools, becomes more dense, and sinks. Mantle convection is thought to be the mechanism driving the movement of tectonic plates.
