Question
The patient described symptoms of blurred vision, pain, and tearing, inquiring whether it’s possible to have glaucoma.
Answer
The doctor recommended that the patient undergo an eye pressure measurement to determine if they have glaucoma, and pointed out that normal eye pressure could be associated with fundus retinal changes and further examination is needed. If diagnosed with glaucoma, initial treatment may include using pilocarpine eye drops, and if this is ineffective, a trabeculectomy surgery may be required.
