What are some other reasons for high eye pressure other than glaucoma?


(my family eye doctor recently told me that my eye pressure was high-normal but because there wasn't any other signs of glaucoma than I probably shouldn't worry but he's sending me for tests to be sure!)

Some medications will also cause high pressures in the eyes

high eye pressure is glaucoma regardless of cause ,trauma ,open angle ,close angle ,recession ,blockage etc etc
