Question:

If you have your cataracts removed , will having glaucoma be a concern?


Answers:

Removing cataracts has no bearing on the possibility of having glaucoma. Glaucoma is the direct result of IOP, or the pressure in the eye, which can if left untreated result in damage to the optic nerve.
There are many pressure lowering drops on the market that will protect your eyes, only by prescription.
