I am 26 years old.Two weeks ago i was diagnosed with increased eye pressure 26mm in right eye and 25mm in left eye. The pressure on next day also 25/25 in both eyes and C:D ratio of 0.8 and suspect me as open angle glaucoma.Doctor prescribed me 9pm eye drop for reducing eye pressure for 2 weeks.After two weeks they again check my eye pressure which comes out to 25.7/25.7 in both eyes..Now doctor prescribed me iotim eye drops two times in 12 hours. And asked me to come in 1 week. I have frontal headache and eye pain all the time and i am not able to sleep well at nights. What's the reason for high eye pressure despite taking eye drops. I have floaters problems also.Please suggest me solution for this problem.
