Narrow angles/iridotomy:  With  my follow up after the iridotomies the left eye didn't open as much as the right eye but all the angles are open, pressure is good and optic nerve is healthy.  I have a mild plateau iris and he said I am more narrow angle, but it leaves me a little worried still.  He said to just come back in a year and to stop worrying.  I don't know, is a year safe or should I be going sooner.  I read with a mild plateau iris its not capable of closure.  What do you think?  And did the iridotomy most likely take care of the mild plateau.  I hate to ask to many questions and then the Dr. feels I don't trust him.  I did ask all I could think of, but I get nervous.   There are no clear cut answers with Glaucoma I know.  Everyone can react differently.  There is so much on the internet, I know some good, some bad, so of course I get mixed information.  Maybe I need to stop searching the internet so much.  

Thanks for any advice.

The PIs should be a a cure as long as there is a good opening.
