Petite question
Hello Thank you for accepting me into the group. Following a severe case of conjunctivitis, I discovered by chance during a routine checkup that my intraocular pressure (IOP) was 22. The ophthalmologist told me not to use eye drops and to have further tests done. Three months later, I went back, and they did a fundus examination, CT scan, visual field test… everything was fine, no glaucoma.
He still told me not to use drops, as the pressure remained the same… 22. I occasionally experience slight pain in my right eye, like a slight pressure, and to top it all off, I see what looks like foreign objects. The only eye drops I use are for dry eyes. There is no history of glaucoma in my family. I have good vision. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Is it safe not to use eye drops for the pressure? Is it normal to see foreign objects? Thank you
