Yes, I think an internet search would be good. If not taken care of, the person can go blind. Eye drops are usually presribed but I have heard that surgery is available.
In a nut shell, glaucoma has something to do with eye pressure. The higher the pressure the more risk to the eye.
My sig other inherited his glaucoma from his mother. He was on eye drops for years until he had out-patient surgery on the eyes. So far so good :)
Glaucoma can also affect pets. My 17 years old cat was diagnosed with it a couple of years ago. I can help the eye pressure by giving him certain eye drops.
