Although glaucoma and cataracts are both eye conditions that can cause loss of eyesight there are a few differences between them. Cataracts cause a painless loss of transparency overtime, while glaucoma can cause vision loss either slowly or quickly but with pain.
In opthamology, cataracts is an abnormality of the eye. . In some instances we were unable to tell the difference between a cataract and a waterfall
effects are what happens when you have something symptoms are something that makes you think you have something
The difference is that cataracts is a cloudy film that grows over the eye, it starts very small then get larger. Floaters are dark specks you notice especially when looking at a white wall.

First of all you have misspelled symptoms. Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, which is what I am assuming you are inquiring about, is the most common type of glaucoma. Unfortunately, there are no symptoms. This is why it is important for people to get their eyes checked on a regular basis especially if you are over the age of 40 and have a positive family history of glaucoma. Optometrists can detect glaucoma through 3 main checks. First of all a field of vision check would reveal any glaucomatous field defects, usually starting at the nasal field and progressing in an arcuate pattern to the optic disc. If left untreated the eventual consequence of this would be tunnel vision. Secondly, an assessment of the optic nerve head can reveal glaucoma. If the cup appears very deep or the optic nerves are asymmetrical between the 2 eyes then this can be indicative of glaucoma. A pale disc is also a sign. As is thinning of the neuro-retinal rim and splinter haemorrhages at the disc, usually in the inferior nasal quadrant. Finally, an optometrist will check the intra-ocular pressure of the eyes. Asymmetry of more than 5mmHg or a value over 21mmHg can suggest glaucoma. This is the least reliable measure of glaucoma detection as you can have normal IOPs yet suffer from glaucoma.
Diverticulitis is an inflammation of the large intestine or colon. Diverticulosis is a condition that has similar symptoms but there is no inflammation.
Code mixing in the context of mechanism glaucoma refers to the interplay between different languages or dialects in communication about the disease. This can occur in multilingual communities where individuals may switch between languages while discussing symptoms, treatment options, or experiences related to glaucoma. Understanding code mixing can help healthcare providers better communicate with patients, ensuring they comprehend important information about managing their condition. It highlights the need for culturally sensitive approaches in patient education and support.

Yes, there is a relationship between obesity and glaucoma. Studies have shown that obesity can increase the risk of developing glaucoma, particularly primary open-angle glaucoma, due to factors like increased intraocular pressure and systemic inflammation. Additionally, obesity-related conditions such as diabetes and hypertension can further exacerbate the risk. Maintaining a healthy weight may help reduce the likelihood of developing glaucoma and other related eye conditions.
One difference, and probably the main one, is that allergies usually don't cause fever and an infection often does.
