If a person has high pressure in their eye...?

Question

will they automaticlaly get glaucoma?

Answer 1

I am not sure why people are reading "blood pressure" into your question when that's not what you said! When pressure in the eye becomes too high, that IS glaucoma. There are two types, closed angle and open angle with different treatments.

People who have severe nearsightedness (myopia) are more likely to have high intraocular pressure (that's inside the eye, or IOP on your chart) and are monitored for glaucoma. There are are several things that increase you risk.

Your pressure may be higher than average but not high enough to yet be considered glaucoma. A person who tells you your IOP is high should tell you what the number is and what needs to be done. Please call your eye doctor for more information. Glaucoma may not cause any symptoms except this pressure reading until the full-blown attack which may cause blindness.

Answer 2

glaucoma is a condition in which there is raised pressure but it is NOT blood pressure..its the cerebrospinal fluid AKA CSF. its a kinda bloodbrain barrier i.e. it monitors the foreign bodies tht enter n leave the blood. its forms barrier n prevents most of the dangerous bacteria etc to enter the blood n hence enter the brain. CSF is found many places frm the brain to the spinal cord. so it is a guard for all these places. The eyes also come is this category. But when something goes wrong with the CSF like its not drained properly then theres raised CSF pressure in the eyes which affects the eye sight. Excess of anything is not nice so same goes for the CSF. The treatment being drainage of the CSF. there r many ways of doing tht ask ur opthalmologist for details or pray that I become one soon :)

Answer 3

Yes they give you medication, high pressure in the eye has to do with a type of glaucoma called dispersment syndrome, slowly over time you can start losing your sight. There is usually a field test you have to have once a year to measure your perrefield vision.

Answer 4

Glaucoma IS high pressure in the eye usually above 20 or 30.

The are several different causes of it, some develop slowly and are treated with medication (usually eye drops), some develop all of a sudden and can be treated surgically--they use a laser to drill holes in the iris to relieve the pressure.

The pressure in your eye has NOTHING to do with blood pressure, and NOTHING to do with CSF.

Answer 5

First of all, don't think of suiciding. You still have an average of 66 years to live, your life isn't going to be like that forever. You have a mind of your own you can take your own actions, if you don't like your parents nor you feel at home then you should have no problem leaving (if you can wait, wait a few more years until you are a young-adult) if not you can surely talk to someone. Judging from the life here described you fit in an emo type of person (I don't mean to offend here), people may not like you because of the way you talk/answer/present-yourself/look-like to them, if you are a good person no one will know unless you act like one, try meeting more people and get in touch with the ones you can relate to. 14 year old kids are indeed immature, 90% of them, but in every school there is always those 10% chill/cool people. Try practicing a sport because it makes a huge difference. Doing sports is a way of meeting more people (that do the same sport), getting out of home, feeling much happier overall, getting stronger, getting healthier and breaking of the routine -> freshens up your life. When this is over, there will be the world waiting for you, you will start your life, just hold tight till then. There is the possibility that you are exaggerating also, since I don't know your parents side of story, I've met a person that speaks so much crap about her parents and that they treat her bad and she hates them and when in her home the parents are actually good people. She looks normal and you would normally believe someone like her but her view of the parents did not meet the reality (she exaggerated everything), I'm not saying this is true in your case, it's just a possibility, the better way to know your situation would be actually going to your home so I would apply my perspectives. You should get a friend over and talk later about it with him/her. All of this I said was kind of centered that the problem could be you as I've seen similar situations, try going to a shrink (usually school has one for free). You may be delusional, it may seem cold and bad saying this but delusional people don't know/recognize that they are. In case your situation is really bad parenting then other people here pretty much covered it (run from home, seek help, etc...), of course if your case is NOT bad parenting you will still pick this option because you think it is, so try applying those options I gave you (in either cases it'll help). I hope the situation gets better! Good luck. PS: Don't misinterpret me, I tried to make a complete solution including solving possible self problems.

Answer 6

i thought glaucoma was actually diagnosed from pressure in eye.
i thought that was what it meant. then the outcome (like reduced vision etc) follows in time if the pressure is not reduced. i forget how they reduce the eye pressure, probably medication.

Answer 7

you can't get hbp in your eye,sweetie. when you have high blood pressure...it affects your vision,kind of like diabetics. with the proper diet and loss of weight,and doctor advise...it should all be cool. hope this helps. :)
