Glaucoma is a disease the attacks the retina and the optic nerve causing blindness. it will affect your ability to see things on the side causing you to have tunnel vision till all things go dark and I'm sorry there is no cure for it unless you opt. for a complete eye transplant. Now what you are experiencing is a cataract I don't know how old you are but cataracts are caused by 3 things the first is eye accidents the second is diabetes, and the third is caused by aging and it is rare that both eyes are affected it is usually the one eye that the cataract is attached to and that is corrected by surgery.
