How long does the clinical symptom of hormonal glaucoma take to disappear?

Patient's question:

Sick for several days, hospitalized for four days, admission intraocular pressure 50-60mmHg. Test results: thinning of retinal nerve fibers. Normal tests. Slightly impaired visual field. The doctor said this is it, this is the treatment effect. But now, apart from the clinical symptoms, when will the symptoms disappear? What will happen in the future? Past treatment and effectiveness: Hypertensive medication lowered intraocular pressure. Discharged after four days. The doctor said to follow up in outpatient clinic.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the symptoms of glaucoma include eye pain and discomfort, eye pressure, frequent dizziness, headaches, and seeing halos in the dark at night, feeling as if there are red colored rings covering things. Sometimes, severe headaches may cause retching. There are three main symptoms of congenital glaucoma: tearing, photophobia, and severe eyelid pain.
Advice: It is recommended that you avoid heavy physical labor. Do not exert excessive force, as your blood vessels are already fragile. Even a minor blood vessel rupture could lead to deafness. It is best to avoid constipation. Do not bend your head down to do things, as blood rushing to the head can be harmful to patients with glaucoma.
