Can glaucoma cause vision loss and appearance of floaters?

Hello

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Does any of your parents have glaucoma? First of all, you need to stop stressing about this. Glaucoma is a very tricky disease to diagnose and is mainly prominent in the older population. Glaucoma in the younger generation is usually congenital and the symptoms by your age are very evident. Higher levels of myopia in one eye can also cause floaters. I would like to see the results of the refraction, OCT (optical coherence tomography), visual field test, and tonometry to confirm that.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.

Regards.
