    hello, Glaucoma is damage to the optic nerve from high eye pressure. it causes eye redness, eye pain, headache, and blurred vision that come and go. If you think you have sign & symptoms like this, be sure to have your eyes check with eye professionals,

      If you are over the age of 40 and if you have a family history of glaucoma, you should have a complete eye exam with an eye doctor every one to two years. If you have health problems such as diabetes or a family history of glaucoma or are at risk for other eye diseases, you may need to visit your eye doctor more frequently.

            Most individuals with glaucoma can wear contact lenses without any difficultly if they wish. he primary circumstance in glaucoma patients which would make wearing a contact lens difficult or relatively contraindicated is following glaucoma filtering surgery.
