Possible: There is warning on increase eye pressure from nasal or inhaled steroid. However the incidence is extremely rare and the occurrence is likely related to your genes if these drugs do in fact affect your eye pressure. If your asthma requires Advair, you have no choice but to treat the eye pressure issue when it reaches dangerous level. Consider trying an antihistamine nasal spray vs Nasonex (mometasone).
