A client does not understand why vision loss due to glaucoma is irreversible. What is the nurse's best explanation?
Correct Answer: B

This necrosis occurs due to the damage caused by increased intraocular pressure, which leads to irreversible damage to the optic nerve and retinal tissue. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not directly address the specific mechanism of irreversible vision loss in glaucoma, which is necrosis due to high pressure.
