In this plan
Purpose, Prevention & Protection
- I know a normal pressure reading does not mean my optic nerve is safe from damage.
- I understand nerve sensitivity and blood flow may play a role; the cause is not fully known.
- I tell my team about glaucoma in my family, migraines, low blood pressure, or sleep apnea.
- I ask my eye and primary care clinicians to review blood pressure treatment together.
