Patient's question:
Please ask the ophthalmologist to help take a look—is it glaucoma? If the answer is irrelevant, it will not be accepted. I haven't had enough sleep for the past two weeks. Besides occasional stomach issues, I've been feeling tired lately and often use the computer during the day. My eyes feel a bit sore, puffy, and uncomfortable. I never paid attention to this before, so I didn't notice if I had this condition. Today, I went to the hospital to check my eye pressure and fundus. The eye pressure is normal, but the optic disc CD ratio is 0.5 smaller than the left eye and 0.7 smaller than the right eye. The doctor said the optic disc CD is slightly larger than the right eye. They mentioned it's possible it could be glaucoma, or it might just be your natural eye structure. To figure it out, they suggested a visual field test. What's going on with my condition? Is it really glaucoma, or could it be a congenital issue? Is it necessary to have a more thorough examination?Doctor's answer:
The diagnosis of glaucoma requires a comprehensive analysis of relevant examinations such as intraocular pressure, fundus, and visual field. Based on your description and the examination data, it is currently not certain that you have glaucoma. It is recommended that you pay attention to resting your eyes in the near future. The symptoms you are experiencing with your eyes are closely related to eye fatigue. The self-healing cupping test alone is not sufficient to diagnose glaucoma. It is advised that you pay attention to using your eyes scientifically on a daily basis and have your eyes examined regularly at the hospital.
