I had a Glaucoma Eye revision surgery on January 13th last month. Went to get my pressure checked day after it was 15. doctor was happy.Went again a week later it was 8. Doctor not happy. My bleb was leaking.

She is giving it another two weeks and i go back.She said probably another surgery to move my drainage tube to the other side of my eye. I am so scared. Already two surgeries for this Neovascular Glaucoma.😔

8 is not very low. Mine is 4 and has remained at 4. It’s been 18 months since my op. It might be worth asking what the consequences are if you don’t have a further op.

Not what you're looking for?
