National Glaucoma Week runs from 15 - 21 August 2010 and seeks to raise awareness of the ‘silent' eye condition-glaucoma. Glaucoma is a major cause of sight loss in Australia.

The week will encourage all Australians, once they reach the age of 40, to undertake a comprehensive eye check every two years and not to take their sight for granted.

For more information contact Glaucoma Australia on 1800 500 880 or visit the Glaucoma Australia website.
