Guest guest Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Several years ago my wife had unequal pupils. After her optometrist evaluated her, and accused me of striking her, he dismissed the pupil as nothing to worry about. Several years later and a diagnosis of Glaucoma she had two major eye surgeries, one for a bleb to equalize her pressure, and another for a cornea transplant, she is doing quite well. Not all optometrists check for interocular pressure. Make sure this is done right away. Had this been done for my wife, she would have saved a substantial portion of her eye sight. I keep telling her she is a perfect candidate for a medical marijuana license, but she turns it down. Go figure!!! Anyway, make sure your patient is checked for Glaucoma. It may save her eye sight.
