This is exactly what happened to me now. I am so worried and confused. This dr I saw said to come next year.who do you trust
I have recently had the same diagnosis of narowed angles on otherwise healthy eyes. My Dr. made an appt. to see me next year, but I now worry I should have the laser iridiotomy. I wonder why one Dr says it has to be done and another Dr says see you next year.
I have had the same diagnosis and had to have laser iridotomy on both eyes. Yesterday I had to have the one eye done again and then be checked in another month. The actual procedure is not so bad but afterwards (the same day) the eye feels sore. The next day it is fine.
Hi,
I had the same exact diagnosis in March. No glaucoma, low pressures. I have always been farsighted. I was wondering if you had the iridotomies and how are you doing? It would be nice to communicate with someone with the same problem. I haven't met anyone who knows about this except the Doctors I communicate with. I think the Doctors on this site have been the most helpful though.
Take care for now.
Yes, narrow angles means the angles are normal and may be prone to acute angle closure. A laser PI can prevent this. Chronic narrow angle glaucoma means that you have glaucoma due to elevated pressure or damage to your optic nerve.
