Glaucoma: Glaucoma can lead to blindness. Borderline glaucoma means that the disease is not severe or significant but could become so. Your doctor is trying to save your eyesight!

No such thing!: There is no such thing as borderline. Your doctor may have found things on your examination that indicate you may have glaucoma, be at risk for developing glaucoma, or signs that it may be present (but they are not sure yet). They may call it borderline, if they are not sure if you do or do not have the disease yet, but are suspicious it is glaucoma. They watch closely until they can determine.
