Hello, the symptoms of glaucoma include eye pain and discomfort, eye swelling, frequent dizziness, and headaches. At night, you may see halos around lights, feeling as if there are red colored rings covering them. Sometimes, severe headaches may cause dry heaving.There are three main symptoms of congenital glaucoma: tearing, photophobia (light sensitivity), 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 vessel rupture could lead to deafness. It is important to avoid constipation. Do not bend your head down to do things, as blood rushing to the head can be harmful to glaucoma patients.
