Know the risks and save your sight

Half a million Brits are blind to the fact that they are losing their sight to glaucoma – a common eye disease that is often symptom-less until vision has been irrecoverably lost.

To mark World Glaucoma Day (12 March 2010) the Trust is inviting everyone to take a simple test to discover whether they are at increased risk of suffering from the condition.
