Kevin Niksarli, M.D. Of Newsight Laser Center, New York, N.Y. Reminds Early Detection Critical to Slowing Progress of Glaucoma on 6/17/2009
Kevin Niksarli, M.D. of Newsight Laser Center, New York, N.Y. states that glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness in the United States, affecting over 3 million Americans. As many as half of them do not even know they have the disease. That is because glaucoma – often called “the sneak thief of sight” – attacks silently, with no noticeable symptoms or warning signs until it has become well established, adds Dr. Niksarli. - June 18, 2009
