BC Place glows green for Glaucoma Awareness

January 6th, 2019

BC Place will glow green on Sunday, January 6th for Glaucoma Awareness Month.

Glaucoma is called "the sneak thief of sight" since there are no symptoms and once vision is lost, it's permanent. As much as 40% of vision can be lost without a person noticing. More than 250,000 Canadians have chronic open-angle glaucoma, the most common form of the disease.
