I personally wouldn't risk it but I'd advise asking your glaucoma specialist's opinion as well as the cosmetic surgeon. I had bleph on my eyelids a year or so before I was diagnosed with glaucoma and always wondered if the surgery impacted on my future eye vision. I should add that it wasn't a brilliant success as it turned out the cosmetic surgeon was not great.
