Question
Is blue eye discoloration a sign of glaucoma?
Answer
A blue tinge in the whites of the eyes is not always a symptom of glaucoma. Glaucoma can cause symptoms such as eye pain, nausea, vomiting, and blurred vision, requiring a detailed eye pressure examination for diagnosis. Without early treatment, it can lead to blindness. It is recommended to use mydriatic eye drops and cooperate with Mannitol antihypertensive therapy treatment with mannitol to lower pressure, and if treatment is ineffective, trabeculectomy may be considered. As for eyes that appear blue, a brain MRI should be conducted to rule out bleeding or inflammation.
