I had a stent put in my left eye 3 years ago and now have about 10% vision. Right eye has about 80% vision. My understanding is the Glaucoma attacks the optic nerve and there is no cure available. I take drops in both eyes 4 times a day to keep the pressure down. Last test both were at 12. Vision getting worse. Tough to handle. Al

I behave hATTR and I’ve had trouble with my eyes . I’ve had laxer treatment and lens replacement . I don’t know if your cause of glaucoma is due to your diagnosis, maybe discuss this with your doctor on your next visit. I pray everything works out for you and you get the information you need concerning this issue . Maybe another team / family member is experiencing the same thing and can give you some insight on this issue. Have a Blessed night and don’t get discouraged continue staying strong and fight . You’re not alone you have all of us with you . 🤗🤗🤗🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Have you talked to your doctor about stints in your eyes? My husband had them put in when he had cataract surgery and no longer has glaucoma.
