Kidney stone drug effect on eyes
I have been on Urimax ( tamsulosin ) and Aquazide from last 1.5 months for kidney stone treatment and have been drinking 5-6 litres of water daily. Yesterday I went for eye checkup and got IOP of 28. Do these kidney stone drugs cause high IOP in eyes?

Not likely. Please get it checked once again and also get the diurnal variation and oct and nerve head imaging checked before starting treatment Drinking lot of water and getting iop checked within 1/2 an hr might be a cause of raised .iop.
