There are four major types of glaucoma: Closed angle (acute) glaucoma Open angle (chronic) glaucoma Congenital glaucoma Secondary glaucoma All four types of glaucoma are characterized by increased pressure within the eyeball, and therefore all can cause progressive damage to the optic nerve. Increased pressure occurs when the fluid within the eye (called aqueous humor) does not drain properly. The pressure pushes on the junction of the optic nerve and the

inviteUserToBeginWebIQ(1,269,512,445); IMS HEALTH, NPA data. Total dispensed prescriptions. March 2003 through February 2004. XALATAN is a prescription medicine used to lower eye pressure, also called intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension (abnormally high IOP) or open-angle glaucoma. Important Safety Information About XALATAN Like all medicines, XALATAN can have side effects. These side effects are usually mild and tolerable and may include blurred vision, burning and stinging, eyelid redness, the feeling that something is in the eye, eye itching, increased pigmentation (darkening) of eye color, or irritation of the clear front surface of the eye. XALATAN may slowly cause darkening of eye color due to increased brown color, darkening of the eyelid and eyelashes, and increased growth and thickness of eyelashes. Color changes can increase as long as XALATAN is administered; eye color changes are likely to be permanent.

The Sneak-Thief of Sight This animation shows progressive vision damage from untreated glaucoma THE EYE To keep it light-weight for rapid movement, the eye is made from soft, but strong tissues. However, like a camera, the eye needs to maintain its shape so that it can focus light accurately. This is achieved by keeping the eye firm, like a balloon. Clear fluid (the aqueous) is pumped into the eye from the bloodstream carrying oxygen, sugars and other essential nutrients. Circulating around the structures inside the eye, the aqueous is then drained through a meshwork back to the blood to be renewed. Drainage is against resistance, so the eye's pressure is kept higher than air pressure, but lower than the blood pressure. Normal Eye WHAT IS GLAUCOMA? Glaucoma is the name given to a group of eye diseases in which the optic nerve at the back of the eye is slowly destroyed. In most people this damage is due to an increased pressure inside the eye - a result of blockage of the circulation of aqueous, or its drainage. In other patients the damage may be caused by poor blood supply to the vital optic nerve fibres, a weakness in the structure of the nerve, and/or a problem in the health of the nerve fibres themselves. Over 300,000 Australians have glaucoma. While it is more common as people age, it can occur at any age. As our population becomes older, the proportion of glaucoma patients is increasing.
