hi this is my first post here , ive been reading around this spot seems well informed and generally nice! im 27 yr old white male with open angle glaucoma , pressure ranged from 40-55,,, with drops around 38-45, had a SLT, it did nothing but give me iritis for a few months no change in iop, had a trab 7 months ago ,which resulted in hypotony around 0-4, which caused massive pain and wrinkled the retina , my doc is a great guy best in 400mile range , but my doubts started then , anyhow 2 months after failed trab we did the trab revision, now my pressure is 5-8 still painfull , extreme light sensativity, i was on pred forte from oct 2009 --march2010...i now have a posterior subcapsular cataract in that eye ( its all in the left eye)...my doc wants to do another surgery and im frankly scared to death that its only gonna get worse, everyone i talk to seems to think my dr is knife happy, and basically im in worse shape now then before...my mother told me to get a lawyer but that scares me even more ..
any words of advice would be great, i have another eye app in a few days to take a few more test but till then im searching for someone with more experience , i dont know anybody w cataracts or glaucoma, especially at my age (27)
thanks again
