A member asked:
It seems caffeine increases eye pressure which is bad for people with glaucoma. does it still increase eye pressure if youre already using the eye drops?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There is no solid evidence that caffeine directly raises intraocular pressure and there's no reason for glaucoma patients to avoid coffee.
