It is not uncommon for people with glaucoma to be affected by other eye conditions.
Dry eye, or dry eye disease (DED) is a common eye disorder where the eyes don’t make enough tears, or the tears evaporate too quickly.
We are working tirelessly to support UK researchers to shed light on early diagnosis, care and treatment that will help everyone affected by glaucoma.
From being diagnosed to getting to grips with treatments and how glaucoma affects everyday life, these stories give a voice to those who are dealing with the disease – and may be experiencing the same things as you or a member of your family.
Support people who have just been diagnosed or those living with the condition. You can make a single or monthly donation. Your donation will help us support people with glaucoma and fund research into detection, management and treatment.
