Hi,
As previously stated, I've had a serious head injury which has caused a fracture of in my cribriform plate. Not until 3 years ago did I start noticing dry eyes, eyelid inflammation, lower-eyelid discharge, and my actual eyes getting smaller. I just went to a glaucoma specialist a few days ago to determine if they are actually getting smaller. According to the glaucoma specialist I am 17 in pressure in both eyes. At another doctor I was at 12mmHg 1 year ago. One doctor once said that the eyes can be pulled back after a serious head injury. If so, can this imitate the visual appearance of eyes getting smaller? Also, can the pressure from pulling the eyes back with force by the muscles, etc. cause the eyes to shrink somehow and give a false-positive reading due to the abnormal, localized pressure within the eye (in the front) even when it is actually hypotonous? In other words, pressure is localized in such away in the front part of the eye that it gives a normal reading when in reality it is far less if no force was pulling back(if that is the case). Perhaps I have an underlying infection. I don't know. I just need possible theories not a diagnosis, considering the limitations of internet.
