This was very helpful. I have Narrow Angle Glaucoma and am seeing an ophthalmologist in June to be assessed for Laser Iridotomy. My eye dr said the ophthalmologist can monitor its progression but I think I just want to get it done. The thought of going blind scares the F outta me.

I've been taking an antidepressant and it makes my eyes fatigued more quickly than before, but other than that my base vision remains the same. Is that considered glaucoma?

[@suzymchughzie]

I developed narrow angled glaucoma as a result of HCTZ or a simple diuretic. If a patient suffers from a sudden onset of narrow angled glaucoma, please ask their doctor if they are currently taking any diuretics, and if they are...get them off the drug immediately!

[@muslimahsharing4761]

i find cofee and lemon is diuretic for me, will that affects the same way.

[@Amalisa710]

How does Brimonidine (sympathomimetic) work, and also Timolol (betablocker, so blocking SNS effect)? Seems like they do opposite things?
