Glaucoma results from high pressure inside the eye that causes damage to the optic nerve. This condition typically happens slowly, progressing over a number of years. Doctors detect glaucoma by examining the back of the eye and measuring the intraocular pressure.
You can breastfeed your baby for as long as you want. When you stop breastfeeding, itâs called weaning your baby. Some babies begin weaning on their own between 6 and 12 months as they start eating solid food and become more active. Weaning is a slow process that doesn't happen in a few days.
Most women set goals for breastfeeding of between three months and a year. Though in many parts of the world, itâs usual to breastfeed for two years or even longer. How long you keep breastfeeding for is your decision.
