No, you should not stop this medicine. If you stop it, the pressure will rise again. Lopress is an anti glaucoma medicine. Glaucoma is vision threatening disease. So follow instructions of your ophthalmologist.

Pressure can be checked by physical examination only. Also glaucoma (eye pressure)medication is not supposed to be stopped on your own. Ideally your dr should examine you and suggest accordingly.
Next Steps
please consult local ophthalmologist for further management.
