With primary open angle glaucoma, inner eye pressure rises as the canals that drain fluid from the eye become clogged. POAG can develop over several years. Over time it can reduce vision if it is not diagnosed and treated. Angle-closure glaucoma occurs less frequently than POAG and is much more serious. With this form of the disease, eye pressure rapidly increases to high levels before draining. This overtime causes damage to the optic nerve. Closed angle glaucoma is an emergency and needs immediate medical attention.</wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541//p>/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n<h2 class=/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/"wp-block-heading has-h-4-font-size/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/" id=/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/"difference-between-open-closed/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/">What is the Difference Between Open and Closed Angle Glaucoma?</wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541//h2>/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n/wp-json/wp/v2/egc_services/541/n<p>Primary open angle glaucoma does not cause any significant symptoms.
