Glaucoma is a chronic, progressive optic neuropathy caused by a group of ocular conditions, which lead to damage of the optic nerve with loss of visual function. The aim is to assess the level of knowledge regarding the association between diabetes and glaucoma, highlighting potential gaps in awareness. A cross-sectional approach was employed with 300 diabetic patients attending the hospital. Data was collected through semi-structured questionnaire and analyzed to determine the prevalence of glaucoma awareness, identify factors influencing awareness, and assess the impact of awareness on preventive measures. Among 300 patients involved in the study, a mere 26 individuals (8.6%) were familiar with the term glaucoma and only 14 individuals (4.6%) had some understanding of glaucoma. The subjects exhibited a notable lack of awareness and knowledge about glaucoma. Findings from this research will contribute to valuable insights for healthcare professionals and policymakers to enhance awareness programs, ultimately promoting early detection and management of glaucoma in diabetic population.
