My official diagnosis is "Malignant glaucoma following macular hole surgery". After two laser treatments I had cataract surgery. The following day my pressure in the right eye went to 60. Later that day I lost the sight in my right eye. The macular hole surgery took place on 6th February. The second operation took place on 21st March. Does anyone else have this type of glaucoma?

I’m afraid I don’t and I’m sorry to hear about your experience with glaucoma, it sounds very aggressive. Hopefully someone from the team can shed more light on your particular condition. My best wishes to you.
