Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

If your IOP is high do not do heavy workouts and maintain healthy life style,ask your doctor for resolving the issue and have a regular follow up as you have family risk of galucoma

Question 2

I'm really concerned because I had ICL surgery about two months ago and now my IOP readings are 1416 with GAT and 2325 with NCT. I've been experiencing eye pain like something sharp is poking my eye, and I've also been getting headaches. Do you think I should consider getting the ICL removed?

Accepted Answer

That unusual,visit Ophtholmologist for evaluation and appropriate management

Question 3

I recently had a swab test done on my right eye, and I'm anxious about the results. Since I've already undergone a DCR surgery on my left eye, I'm quite concerned about the state of my right eye. Can you let me know the outcome of the swab test?

Accepted Answer

Visit your doctor for evaluation and appropriate management

I'm dealing with some really uncomfortable itching and inflammation in my eyes, and they've turned really red. I can't seem to stop rubbing them. Could you recommend any eye drops that might help with this?

Visit your doctor for evaluation and appropriate management as it looks like Conjunctivitis.
