Welcome to the UK website of the IGA

This website is a comprehensive source of up-to-date news and information about glaucoma, and is provided as a free service by the International Glaucoma Association (IGA).

The IGA is a patient-based organisation which works to prevent glaucoma blindness by providing information, literature and advice.

• We provide support to thousands of glaucoma sufferers.
• We are a UK based non-governmental organisation, a charity registered in England & Wales.
• We are committed to preventing unnecessary loss of sight through the condition, which is one of the most common eye disorders.
• We arrange meetings in the UK open to all twice a year and provide a regular newsletter to our members and friends as well as overseeing a network of support groups and fund research into the causes and treatment of glaucoma and disseminate the results to appropriate audiences.
