Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma Market Scope and Segmentation  

Market Definition

Primary angle-closure glaucoma is a type of glaucoma characterized by the gradual or sudden blockage of the drainage angle within the eye, leading to impaired fluid drainage and increased intraocular pressure. This elevated pressure can damage the optic nerve, resulting in vision loss. Symptoms may include severe eye pain, headache, blurred vision, and nausea. Timely diagnosis and intervention are crucial to prevent irreversible vision impairment, often requiring medical or surgical interventions to alleviate intraocular pressure and manage the condition.
