    nope, it's a problem with the eyes that might well make you blind sooner or later. perhaps you're thinking of kleptomania.

    Glaucoma is a disease of the eye.

    Glaucoma is an eye disease. Kleptomania is the compulsion to steal.

    No glaucoma is an affliction of the eyes, when you steal stuff its kleptomania

    Glaucoma is a condition of increased pressure within the eyeball, causing gradual loss of sight.

    Kleptomania causes you to 'steal stuff' as you put it, and is not related to glaucoma in any way.

    So no, glaucoma doesn't make you steal stuff - that's kleptomania that you're thinking of.
