Glaucoma is known as the silent thief of sight because (in its common forms) there is no pain and no other symptoms until the damage has been done.

I don't have glaucoma, I have high IOP due to prolonged use of steroid drops. I know when the pressure is high, I can feel it. Firstly I get a pulsing, this means the pressure is up to about 25-30 then I get feelings of pressure and lastly if i blink fast I can see black striations in the shape of my iris.
