Freaking out a little because I was just diagnosed with glaucoma in one eye. It is a fairly rare kind, pigmentary dispersion, which typically strikes younger males (I am an older woman). My eye pressure is jumping all over the place as they are trying different drops. I've been in and out of the eye clinic for two weeks now, and I go to a glaucoma specialist next week.
What is scary is that if I hadn't been diagnosed in a routine eye check visit, I'd have no idea I have this condition. There are no symptoms at all.
Just another day in paradise Does anyone have glaucoma and a story to tell, preferably with a good outcome? I understand that there are levels of different drops and oral medications until surgery is indicated, and that there is a laser treatment as well.
