unlikely to be glaucoma if the pressure is good.
glaucoma usually affects 'peripheral' vision before it affects central vision. plenty of nearly-blind glaucoma patients out there who see 20/20 but have 'restricted fields' (no peripheral vision.
likely something else: cataract, corneal problem, retinal problem, etc etc.
