Yes, .there are many types of glaucoma. Primary open angle is the most common. In this case the fluid does not drain adequately even though the area appears to be open. Narrow angle glaucoma is a more serious glaucoma. Again the fluid does not drain, but in many cases goes up more significantly and quickly. This type can cause vision loss which occurs rapidly. Normal pressure glaucoma occurs when the eye pressure is normal but the patient continues to lose vision and is not aware of the problem until it is too late. There are other forms such as Congenital, Traumatic and Diabetic, but these are less common.
