OK, I Have Glaucoma And Recently Started Taking Pravastatin For

OK, I have glaucoma and recently started taking pravastatin for hypercholesterol (after not being able to take several others over the past few years due to muscle pain or rectal bleeding) and the pressure in my right eye went up in a 3 week period from 20 to 32. I had a partial corneal transplant in that eye in March and have had trouble keeping the pressure under control since then. I have to also use a steroid (Lotemax) in that eye for the transplanted patch. It had finally come down from a high of 46 to 19 or 20 and then I started the pravastatin. Not getting a clear indication of a connection from the info online. Thanks
