As for Glaucoma.....
I am a Manager at a Walmart Vision Center. From what i understand Gliders do not get glacoma. Glacoma is an eye diseise in which the optical nerve deteriates. By the time it is detected in humans usally 90% of the otical nerve is gone. People with Glacoma lose ther perifial vision first.
The eye prob Gliders have relates to diet...like too many nuts.... be careful of your gliders fat intake and you should be ok.
