Find Cannabis to Help With Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, the health of which is vital for good vision. This damage is often caused by abnormally high pressure in the patient’s eye. About 3 million Americans have this condition, according to the CDC.

Several clinical studies have found that cannabinoids may reduce ocular pressure, and could replace most conventional glaucoma medications. While conventional medications present a number of adverse side effects, cannabis typically does not.
