A member asked:
How do i know if i have intraocular pressure high enough to worry about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Glaucoma is uncommon: Your eye pressure is usually normal. Elevated pressures that are too high for too long can hurt the delicate eye tissue. The nerve can die and the vision can be lost. You can have the pressure measured easily at the eye doctors office. The test is simple and no pain Keep us posted
