Abstract
Primary glaucoma is a critical eye condition that can lead to irreversible blindness if not detected and managed early. Agricultural workers are at a unique risk due to prolonged exposure to environmental factors such as UV radiation, dust, and chemicals, which may exacerbate the onset and progression of glaucoma. This paper discusses the importance of early detection of primary glaucoma among agricultural workers, exploring specific risk factors, the clinical course of the disease, and strategies for timely diagnosis and intervention.
