Juvenile open angle glaucoma would be a possibility but unlikely in the setting of normal eye pressures. You should be checked carefully with gonioscopy for pigment dispersion glaucoma which is more common in young nearsighted patients. Make sure you are seeing a glaucoma specialist for this as your case is a bit more complicated than average given your younger age, myopia, peripheral vision loss, and normal eye pressures. I would definitely have a subspecialist look at your eyes.

The doc called mine early onset. Apparently I've had symptoms I haven't noticed for several years. Since the research papers and info I've been able to find often use juvenile interchangeably with early onset I'm wondering if there's a difference. And what that means in terms of prognosis.
Thank you for your reply!! I will definitely ask about that!
Apparently I have no spindling or hyper pigmentation so I'm not suspected to have the pigment dispersion. I do have hazier vision after exercising. I was hoping the answer would be yes to it as it seems much less scary to me. Are there further tests for this form of glaucoma?
