Pressure increased.
Few days ago i noticed that i was unable to read light boards during night. It goes dizzy when i try to read them. I ignored. I thought this might be due to tiredness. But then i started feeling something strange in my right eye. I noticed a difference between the vision of left and eight eye. And also when i sit in front of computer screen and mobile, my eyes get tired after few mins. Finally yesterday i got myself checked. They examined my eye sight which is nornal and eye pressure (IOP) through maching and manually too. Machine detected 24mmhg. Doctor gave me anesthesia and checked. He wrote Corrected IOP on my report. That is 25mmhg & 24mmhg. He precribed me some medicine and asked me to visit after 10 days. I am very afraid. Only yesterday i heard about glaucoma. I hope its not that.

At this age, glaucoma is unlikely . Stress , too much coffee, lack of sleep can also cause rise in eye pressure as a temporary phenomenon . Go to him again after 10 days in a relaxed frame of mind. Maskatieyeclinic Opposite Charni road station east, Mumbai
