Early detection of glaucoma is crucial because it allows for timely treatment that can significantly help in preserving vision. Glaucoma is a progressive eye condition that often leads to optic nerve damage and, if left untreated, can result in irreversible vision loss. When glaucoma is identified early, treatment options such as medications or surgical interventions can be implemented to manage intraocular pressure and slow the progression of the disease. This proactive approach is essential for maintaining a patient’s quality of life and visual functionality.

Focusing on other aspects, options like preventing lens replacement and enhancements in depth of perception or color vision do not directly relate to the primary concern of glaucoma management, which is about protecting and preserving the optic nerve and overall vision.
