Dealing with Glaucoma: Can Eye Size Return to Normal?

Hi all, I have been dealing with glaucoma for a few years now. My pressures started out high 50-70. Had 6 surgeries and now my pressures dropped to 0-2. my eye is shrinking. So I was curious to see if anyone got their pressures bs k up and their eye to get back to normal size?

I also have many other conditions. There are visually impaired groups on the clubhouse app. I'm mainly in one called Blind with a Vision.

Hi, I've had glaucoma for at least 22 years, since I was a kid. I've also had many surgeries, but more spread out. Both of those numbers are extreme. I've never experienced too low pressure. I hope something can be done for you. I have open angle glaucoma. I'm thinking you might have closed angle glaucoma that happens more suddenly.

I feel your pain. I had sight in my right eye and lost it over a period of a few months. Cataract got really bad and then there was bleeding in my eye that wouldn't and still won't stop. I felt like my doctor wouldn't listen to me and because of it i can't see.
