The Glaucoma Foundation is dedicated to developing a cure for glaucoma through innovative research, collaboration and education. Our goal is to eradicate blindness caused by glaucoma.
Educate yourself on the eye and how it works, diagnosing glaucoma, exfoliation syndrome, and glaucoma treatments.
People deal differently with their glaucoma diagnosis and the reality of living with a chronic disease.
Read their stories.
For over 40 years, The Glaucoma Foundation has been at the forefront of new ideas in glaucoma research, bringing leading scientists together & sparking the innovations that shape the field.
For people living with glaucoma and the caregivers supporting them, wellness and self-care goals can start strong and then quietly disappear. The core challenge isn’t motivation; it’s the daily friction of eye drop schedules, appointments, side effects, and the mental load of protecting vision over the long term. When routines don’t fit real life, consistency challenges grow, and emotional stress management gets pushed to the bottom of the list even when it’s needed most. With a steadier approach to glaucoma support, small commitments can feel doable again.
Since it’s founding in 1984, The Glaucoma Foundation has never wavered from its principle mission: to fund cutting edge glaucoma research and to educate the public about glaucoma, its diagnosis, and its treatment. The support of individuals like you has provided us with the resources to deliver on this mission.
