so, i may have glaucoma...this sucks
So what's next, then?
Optic nerve scan? Visual field test?
With thin corneas, I'm supposedly at risk for glaucoma too.
But in the ten years since they discovered that, there's been no cause for alarm.
I wouldn't get too worried, particularly if there isn't a history of glaucoma in your family.

the results of this glaucoma assessment or whatever it's called test determines what happens next. my dad did have cataracts later on in life. i hope that doesnt mean anything. :noes:

From what I know, cataracts are a separate issue -- with cataracts, it's the lens that clouds up. And since an optometrist discovered it, you'll get referred to an opthalmologist for more testing, I'm sure.
Aside from getting the hospital staff to pick up the damn phone, don't sweat it.
