Glaucoma damages the optic nerve and often leads to a gradual loss of peripheral (side) vision. Over time, this can affect:

  • Navigating safely, especially in unfamiliar or cluttered environments.

  • Detecting movement and hazards.

  • Reading and close-up tasks if the condition progresses.

  • Confidence in social or outdoor settings.

  • Although vision loss from glaucoma can’t be reversed, VRS helps individuals learn to function confidently and independently.
