My son had a routine eye exam and his eye pressure was at 18 and 22. His vision is 20/20. The doctor asked that he be re-checked in two weeks. His pressure on Saturday when he was re-checked was 23 and 27. The doctor has referred him to an MD and wants to do a HRT/GDX scan. His optic nerves look perfect and his peripheral vision is completely okay as wellWhat does this mean? As his vision is 100% okay, could it be a fluke reading? Or does this mean he has glaucoma and will need to be on medication for the rest of his life? Does corneal thickness have anything to do with the high intra ocular pressure and if his corneal thickness is high, does that mean this pressure is normal for him? My husband was diagnosed as a glaucoma suspect last year with readings of 33 and 37 and has been on eye meds since then and has normal pressure now.
