There is nothing serious. Your eye pressure(IOP)Is normal.
You are myopic hence your distance vision
Is very low ie 5/60 that means you can see a particular object as near as 5 mts but a normal person can see it from a distance of 60 mts..but with glasses as prescribed your vision is normal.
So you must use glasses as prescribed or if you don't want to use specs you can get lasik operation done.

Hello
A. Eye pressure is 16 and 18mm Hg in right and left eye which is normal
B. Vision without glasses is 5/60 but with glasses it is 6/6 which is normal
It is not VM ...but it is VN...which is short form of vision
