A recent study found drivers who are over the age of 60 and experiencing glaucoma had a greater incident of auto accident than those who were not experiencing symptoms.
The study included patients who were over 60 with glaucoma during multi-year research.
The study found that 5.9% of patients who were interviewed after their first visit reported having been in a car accident. In the following years the numbers steadily increased with each passing visit.
Ms. Wizov encourages her patients and others who experience the symptoms of glaucoma to share this information with their doctors and their loved ones.
Connecticut auto accidents that involve those drivers with vision loss from glaucoma can be serious and may require a skilled Connecticut personal injury attorney to handle the case. If you or a loved one were involved in an accident, our team of attorneys is here to help.
