High intraocular pressure

I have higher intra ocular pressure in my left eye 24mm hg. No other problem. Feeling anxious about it. Been prescribed multivitamins and renolen eye drops by my doctor. Will this help? Also i want to ask if using patanjali drishti eye drops is safe or not.

An isolated high pressure reading does not mean you have glaucoma. Especially if you have no other systemic risk factors or are not on any other oral or inhalational medication such as steroids. Please check your pressures once more and correct it for your corneal thickness. Get a dilated fundus examination done. It would be difficult for us as doctors practising allopathy to comment on Ayurvedic or homeopathic medication.
