About the Ocular Hypertension Session
Ocular hypertension refers to elevated pressure within the eye (intraocular pressure or IOP) that exceeds normal levels without causing immediate damage to the optic nerve or vision impairment, which are typical signs of glaucoma. It is often detected during routine eye exams. While ocular hypertension itself doesn't present symptoms or affect vision, it serves as a significant risk factor for developing glaucoma. Regular eye check-ups are essential to monitor IOP and assess optic nerve health. Treatment options may include periodic monitoring, lifestyle adjustments, or, if necessary, medications to lower IOP and minimize the risk of glaucoma onset. Managing ocular hypertension requires a collaborative approach between patients and eye care professionals to tailor the treatment plan based on individual risk factors and overall health.
