A member asked:
What are some alternate causes of ocular hypertension?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unknown: Ocular hypertension (also called glaucoma suspect) is a condition in which several of the criteria which would make your ophthalmologist be concerned about glaucoma exist. In these patients no actual damage is present to vision and many will be followed frequently to see if glaucoma develops. As many will not develop a problem, it is useful just to follow them.
