Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having dizziness and deteriorating vision.
My response to your question is as follows.
These symptoms can be because of glaucoma as you are suspected to be having low pressure glaucoma.
Low pressure glaucoma also called as normal tension glaucoma is usually associated with other vascular causes and requires evaluation.
This requires treatment by the use of anti-glaucoma drugs. Systemic underlying cause needs to be treated at the same time.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Hope this information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for any further questions and I will be happy to answer and assist you.
Thank you
With regards
