Glaucoma self-check

Are you okay?Self-check your vision!

We recommend checking it on the largest possible screen, such as a computer screen.

Glaucoma progresses gradually over a long period of time, often spanning several decades.
Whether you have been diagnosed with glaucoma or not,
To protect your eyes, perform regular self-checks of your field of vision.

How to check (one eye at a time)
From the screen that appears when you press "Start Self-Check"
Check from a distance of 20-30 cm.
Cover one eye with your hand and stare intently at the star in the center.
Check if there are any areas in the sandstorm that are difficult to see.
Check your other eye as well.

If it looks like this, be careful!!

*The image is an example.

It's a little darker than other places.
There are some blurry parts.

*We recommend checking this on a larger screen, such as a computer, rather than a smartphone.

[Caution]

This check is not a substitute for a medical diagnosis. A medical examination at a healthcare facility is necessary for a diagnosis of glaucoma.
If you have any concerns or questions, please consult an ophthalmologist.
