Some affected individuals may notice a general shift in colour perception where colours appear less vivid and colour saturation decreases.<\/p>\n<p>Colours may be perceived as paler or less intense, resulting in an overall reduced colour experience.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"expression-of-the-glaucoma-symptom-selective-loss-of-certain-colour-perceptions\"><\/span>Expression of the Glaucoma symptom: selective loss of certain colour perceptions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In other people, Glaucoma can lead to selective loss of certain colour perceptions. For example, the ability to recognise certain colours such as red or green may be impaired, while other colours may be less affected.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, affected individuals may have difficulty distinguishing between certain hues or recognising colours that fall within a certain spectrum.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"shift-in-colour-perception-over-time-and-during-the-course-of-the-disease\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.akupunktur-noll.de\/en\/free-e-book-on-glaucoma\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7139 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.akupunktur-noll.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/e-book-glaucoma-teaser-quer-EN.png\" alt=\"Free E-book on Glaucoma by Augenakupunktur Noll\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.akupunktur-noll.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/e-book-glaucoma-teaser-quer-EN.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.akupunktur-noll.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/e-book-glaucoma-teaser-quer-EN-300x135.png 300w, https:\/\/www.akupunktur-noll.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/e-book-glaucoma-teaser-quer-EN-768x346.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a>Shift in colour perception over time and during the course of the disease<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In some cases, the changes in colour vision can be so subtle that they may go unnoticed at first.
