Glaucoma: Check out https://www.Healthtap.Com/#topics/aqueous-humor. Overproduction of aqueous humor is one cause of glaucoma. It can be treated by your ophthalmologist w/medications & surgery. Check out http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/glaucoma/ds00283 for more details. Get regular examinations by your optometrist & ophthalmologist, especially intraocular pressure. Untreated, it's leading cause of blindnes.

A rare disease: Aqueous humor is mostly a problem when the drains fail to function well, and the normal production of aqueous humor continues with elevation of the eye pressure to overcome the resistance. It is really rare for aqueous overproduction to be the reason for pressure elevation in the eye. If production overcomes the drains, pressure goes up and we call that glaucoma. Many eyedrops can reduce flow.
