Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Perforomist will not cause increased eye pressure. It is a bronchodilator. If you have increased pressure in your eyes, then you should consult the glaucoma specialist and let them change the eye drops after monitoring you in person.

Hope it helps.
