I Was Told I Have Signs Of Glaucoma When I

I was told I have signs of glaucoma when I went to my Opthamologist to check my cataracts. he said my pressure was up and to make sure I have eye exams every year. I am seeing blurry from the cataracts that are not ready to be removed. I am 68 and my mom had macular degeneration. What can I do to prevent my pressure from going up. I have had trouble with my blood pressure is there a connection? thx in advance a worried senior who wants to prevent this condition.
