Yesterday I got the diagnosis of NPG, I have been followed as suspect d/t abnormal shape to optic nerve. and deteriorating field vision tests. Both my sisters are currently being followed, we are all in our 50's. We have blindness in our father's family, out of 9children, 3 were totally blind from Retinitis Pigmantosa. No hx of glaucoma on either side. I am the youngest of the 3. Today I started tx with Timolol drops daily. I notice a decrease in my vision, and is much worse on the L. What is the prognosis, should I expect partial or total blindness at some point. Beyond the medications what else is there? Thank you for any input...Cece08
