I Have Been Diagnosed With Open Angle Glaucoma And Doctor

I have been diagnosed with open angle glaucoma and doctor said i have intraocular pressure in my eyes. He there recommends selective laser trabeculoplasty.
My requests:
1. What are the risks of SLT to consider if i am to go for it?
2. I am diabetic and taking insulin. Is insulin contributing to this IOP? If so should I stop taking insulin?
3. I hear weight lifting also cause IOP. Is this true?
