Understanding the role of eye pressure in glaucoma

Consistent eye pressure control is important.

The pressure inside your eye is called intraocular pressure, or IOP. When IOP is elevated, it's a major risk factor for vision loss associated with glaucoma over time. The higher the level of IOP, the greater the chance of optic nerve damage and vision loss.
