Blepharitis, dryness and High IOP

2017-08-24 12:37:39
I'm suffering from blepharitis since last 2 years, in order to treat Blepharitis I was given steroids, which increased my IOP (it is >25) and now I am at risk of Glaucoma. Is there any way to cure both without any further side effects?

You seem to be a steroid responsive. Blepharitis can be treated without steroids and to treat your glaucoma u need to be evaluated properly . Nevertheless first step in steroid induced glaucoma is to stop steroids.
