Is There Any Difference Between Hydrochlorothiazide 25mg Along With Metoprolol Succ Tab 50mg And Metoprolol/hctz 50-25?

I am now taking hydrochlorothiazide 25mg along with metoprolol succ tab 50mg; previously I had taken metoprolol/hctz 50-25; Is there a difference in what I am now taking which would increase my risks for glaucoma. My vision has continued to deteriorate rapidly since making the switch about 1 year ago? I am told I may now have glaucoma.
