“We are seeing a noticeable rise in steroid-induced glaucoma, particularly in patients who use steroid medications or eye drops without medical supervision,” said Soundari S., Regional Head – Clinical Services, Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital, Chennai.

“Many patients don’t recognise early signs like peripheral vision loss, frequent changes in glasses, or seeing halos,” added Murali Ariga, Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist, Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital.
