Glaucoma (Animation of Why It Happens and How It Can Cause Blindness)
Glaucoma is an eye condition that can lead to blindness due to increased pressure within the eye. There are two major types of glaucoma: open-angle and angle-closure. This animation goes over the eye anatomy of what happens with both types of glaucoma. Also, a brief explanation of how a tonometer measures eye pressure is shown at the end.
Glaucoma is of particular concern in the ENT world with any type of facial fracture involving the eye (can cause traumatic glaucoma).
Produced by Dr. Chang who does not evaluate for glaucoma, but refers patients to ophthalmology if there is glaucoma concern. This animation produced for educational purposes only.

I was roll my eye with to much pressure now it's hurting
My father has this. After the surgery the pressure is still higher than normal. So he's now taking a different drop a few times a day. He gets a checkup today so hopefully the pressure subsides
This was a very informative video.
Very informative video
Wooooow.. Thanks alot.
I have glaucoma in both my eyes and I have to take 4 eye drops four times a day to lower my pressures. So far my eye drops are working and my glaucoma is not progressing right now. I do have to see my glaucoma specialist every 4 months to be monitored. Glaucoma has damaged my optic nerve in my left eye with severe cupping but my right eye is not as bad.

I had glaucoma when I was 15 yrs old. I complained many times to my father but he ignored it. It's really uncomfortable. Your vision starts to pulse red due to heart beats

I'm so sorry guys, you don't deserve this. Know that you will overcome this, it's just a bump in the road. I was diagnosed with glaucoma at 13, by that point I was nearly fully blind.

No don’t do that you will lose your vision also it’s important to take it exactly on time and not a minute late. My dad takes both the eye drop and a laser every month bc he is doing bad now and he took all his drops on time

Does the pressure go away and come back at all? I’m currently suffering from migraines and pressure in my right eye but it doesn’t happen all of the time. I have an appt with an ophthalmologist but if anyone can answer this question it might help me in the mean time! Thanks in advance!

Between 10 and 22. But it's always advised to check up regularly, and if possible take a 3 point measurement. So that means 3 times on the same day at morning, afternoon and evening. The progression is also important, so let's say for example you start the day at 10, and end it at 22, in the snapshot moment that seems like a normal pressure reading, but it's still a big build upwards.
