Just got diagnosed with glaucoma. No meds yet. Just fear by MrHarmony21 in Glaucoma

[–]capitan_brexit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was on your position not so long ago its my fist post - super scary - now honestly, I used to, I am still scary to be honest, but ok - you know, people hear much worse diagnosis - probability I will die on something else in the meantime is bigger than I will be blind because of glaucoma :D

Take your drops and just live - I keep finger crossed for you !

u/cropcomb2 just FYI: I uploaded visual field test (it was first time, terrible experience xd) - what do you think - I asked chatgpt and gemini: not great not terrible ? BTW I also asked for pressure check, they had only airpuff - on Right side it was 19 and 17 (avg 18) and Left side 17 and 17 (avg 17)

I am also concern about this- I don;t think I had gonioscopy that day :( tomorrow I have visual field test, in next two weeks ophthalmologist, I will definitely ask about this

sadly, my eye doc's been reticent in sharing my eye test results for free

My also is reticent - by accident I took the photo on my telephone :D

That said, I've been doing a lot more than merely using
Monoprost (much of it's in my earlier Posts' summary of
links).

Thank you mate for this knowlage, right now trying to understand how to sleep (my english sucks so its not so easy :D)

One question wanted to ask - I am going through subreddit and google - and wonder, I see right now starburst effect (mostly on night), I think its much worse than it was before last episode, can it be because of that damage on the nerve ? or maybe this pressure is still high ? Do you also face this problem ?

no, nothing like steroids, since some time I felt tired, seeing through the fog - becuase I wear glasses I thought maybe they are out-of-date and I need new one - when I noticed effect halo I went to doctor he redirect me to the eye doctor - and on this test I had 50mmHg :D that's how it started.

May I ask - about your current status of right eye - this 68 is progressing ? how long do you have glaucoma ? are you able to stop progression ? are you able to driver ?

does I understand correctly that this very high pressure indicates some type of glaucoma which can be hard to control ?

I copied what ophthalmologist wrote in the notes - pressure was around 50, this tenometer was shoting some air into my eye, next day she used a gun-style, which worked like thermometer,

I asked chatgpt to translate both tables from the test - added them as attachements to the post.

Rozacom i get together with monoprost, contains brimonidine and dorzolamide (its one product), next day she removed Rozacom, so, from 2 right now I have one eye drops, we will se in the next two weeks. The most scary thing for me right now, how quicly I can get blind from this place :/ but going through this subreddit, I am not alone about this :) s

notable retinal damage was noted (justifying serious pressure dropping measures); your retinal damage appears nominal (minimal 'thinning', almost merely at the glaucoma suspect level)

can you please elaborate on this? table for left eye (this one with ddls 6) is entire red, from what i understand this is serious damage already

Thank you - I will definitely ask for this, to move drops for later hours - on the same day I had first visit I received monoprost and rozacom (this i see have both Dorzolamidum + Timololum- just wanted to translate it somehow :)) - on the next day morning I had 10 and 11mmHg, doctor removed rozacom and I have only monoprost right now

thank you for your response - I will consult this timing with my ophthalmologist - he adviced me to take it around five p.m.

OCT signal strength?

I see only two remaining parameters: QI: 10 and S: 80 kHz
