Suggest Remedy For Glaucoma

I was told that I have a number of signs of normal pressure glaucoma. I thought that glaucoma was of anterior chamber, narrow-angle high pressure. I have had LASIK surgery about 12 years ago wo complications and god vision. No DM, HTN or vision problems. What do you think? Pressures are 14 & 15 mm

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic

I reviewed your history.
The pressure of 14 and 15 mm of hg is in normal range. Probably you are having narrow angle suspect. This requires regular follow up after baseline investigations in the form of visual fields and optic disc evaluation. You need to be under regular follow up with monitoring of the intraocular pressure.

Thank you
With regards
