He says my eyes are fine, but I "have a lot of fluid behind my eyeballs". But he didn't raise concern about it, just mentioned it. Does anyone know what the hell that means?

Everyone has fluid behind their eyes. If it builds up to much it can cause Glaucoma. It is something to keep an eye on.

Glaucoma (pronounced: glau-ko-muh). One of the leading causes of blindness in the United States, glaucoma is a disorder that causes fluid pressure to build up inside the eye, potentially causing damage to the optic nerve. Although it can occur in infants and children, it is much more common among older adults. Unless detected early by routine screening tests, it usually goes undiagnosed until some vision is lost

Must be something they all say, cause mine said the same thing. I asked what it meant, he said nothing. I said, why say anything then.
