Check if you're at risk for glaucoma

Keep an eye on your eyesight.

Glaucoma is the 2nd leading cause of blindness worldwide. At first, glaucoma doesn't usually have any symptoms. That's why half of people with glaucoma don't even know they have it.  Anyone can get glaucoma, but some people are at higher risk. If one or more of the following is true, you may be at high risk for developing glaucoma: You have diabetes. You have a family history of glaucoma. You're African American and 50 or older. You're Hispanic and 65 or older. Glaucoma Test Coverage The only way to find out if you have glaucoma is to get a glaucoma screening. Talk with your doctor to make sure you're up to date on screenings. Medicare covers a glaucoma screening once every 12 months if you're at high risk. Early treatment can often stop the damage and protect your eyes from serious vision loss. Learn more about glaucoma from the National Eye Institute.
