Need a little help

Hello dear doctors thank you so much for your help. Can anyone please guide me through how one can detect if their intraocular pressure has increased and if one should see a doctor about it,especially when we have floaters. Is there any way at all to detect?

Floaters do not have a relation with high IOP. a regular check up at any Eye doctor should cover measurement of intraocular pressure also ..If not u can ask them to do..
