Glaucoma is the leading cause
Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness, and currently there is no cure. Often glaucoma has no symptoms until very late in the course of the disease, and once you have vision loss from glaucoma, you won't get it back. Many patients may not notice the slow progression of the condition as their vision gradually diminishes. Ophthalmologist Laura Howard, M.D. explains the symptoms and treatments for this disease. Howard is joined by Larry Santora, M.D., medical director of the Orange County Heart Institute and host of "Health Matters with Dr. Larry Santora" television series, which airs weekly on PBS SoCaL Plus.

Produced by Chapman University's Panther Productions, "Health Matters with Dr. Larry Santora" is sponsored by St. Joseph Health, Biotronik and Weaver Health Solutions.
