A member asked:
Does xanax increase eye pressure? i was given xanax in er for an episode of extremely high blood pressure as dr thought anxiety was adding to high readings. i asked if it was ok as i am on drops to control pressure. i took half a tablet. any damage?

Xanax is contraindicated in patients who have acute narrow angle glaucoma (this is usually an emergency condition of the eye). Xanax does not have a mechanism to cause an increase in eye pressure.
