World Glaucoma Day a reminder to get screened early
Sally Hileman wishes she’d had a glaucoma test earlier. About 16 years ago, eye redness and irritation caused her to see an optometrist, who initially thought Hileman was suffering from allergies. But as the she symptoms persisted, she was tested for glaucoma. The test results came back and at age 39, with no family history of the ailment, Hileman was diagnosed with glaucoma. The late diagnosis allowed for significant damage and substantially reduced vision in her left eye.
