I recently had an eye exam and learned my eye pressure is pretty high. During the visit, the doctor asked if anyone in my family had glaucoma, and after I mentioned my optic nerve, she said there's a slight issue but not to worry. I'm curious, can I still do exercises like push-ups, pull-ups, and intense cardio? Is it okay to hit the gym, or could these activities affect my eye pressure?

I'm really worried because my eyes get really watery whenever I'm exposed to light for too long. It becomes really noticeable, like when I have a retina checkup and the doctor uses that bright torch light. My eyes just start tearing up a lot, and it seems like they're getting more sensitive to light over time. Im curious to know what might be causing this issue and what I can do to fix it. Could you help me understand what's happening and how it can be treated?
