For readers, obligatory reminder that if you haven't had a dilated eye exam in a while you should get one, especially if you have a family history of eye disease such as glaucoma. I was diagnosed with open angle glaucoma in my mid 40s and now take drops. Turns out my grandmother had it, though only one person in the family (my aunt) knew this. Open angle otherwise has no symptoms and if untreated can lead to blindness. There is another form, closed angle, which is painful.
