The normal upper limit of IOP is about 20-22 mm Hg; however, as mentioned above, what is odd is that about 40% of people with open angle glaucoma—in whom neuron death can be seen and visual field deficits detected—have IOPs in the NORMAL range; on the other hand, some people have IOPs as high as 40 mm Hg yet have NO symptoms, signs, or visual loss!

Secondary angle closure glaucoma due to anterior chamber shallowing. Reported side effects are headaches, eye pain, and decreased acuity. Ultrasonography has shown choroidal effusion, choroidal detachment, ciliary body edema, which can cause anterior displacement of lens and iris leading to shallow anterior chamber=angle closure=IOP increase

The UCSD glaucoma study hopes to understand why African Americans have a higher rate of glaucoma than Whites, but it needs your ...
