Glaucoma is a group of diseases that damage the eyeâs optic nerve and can result in vision loss and blindness. However, with early detection and treatment, you can often protect your eyes against serious vision loss. The optic nerve is a bundle of more than 1 million nerve fibers. It connects the retina to the brain. (See diagram above.) The retina is the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. A healthy optic nerve is necessary for good vision.
If part of the optic nerve is damaged by glaucoma, the visual signals from a portion of the visual field are no longer reported to the brain and a blind-spot (called scotoma) is formed. Eye doctors may directly observe damage to the optic nerve damage by looking through the pupil with an ophthalmoscope. A healthy optic nerve is pink, and the ratio of the diameter of the optic cup to that of the optic disc in a healthy eye is generally less than 0.5 (see Chapter 1-B for more discussion).
