Join us for an informative webinar as Dr. Danica J. Marrelli discusses the various diagnostic tests that your eye doctor will use to check for signs of glaucoma during a comprehensive eye examination. Glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness, often develops without noticeable symptoms until it’s in advanced stages.
Early detection through a comprehensive eye examination is vital for effective management and preserving vision. Whether you’re a glaucoma patient or simply seeking knowledge, this webinar will equip you with the information you need for proactive eye care. You will have an opportunity to ask questions in a Q&A session to gain more insights from our expert.
Please make sure you are using the most updated version of Zoom. Users who have not updated their application to version 5.12.6 or higher may have issues joining the webinar.
