Is There Any Problem In Putting Ahmed Valve In Eye ?
My nephew had a problem with his left eye & had an Ahmed Valve put in about 2 months ago. Could this affect the pressure in his right eye as a side effect...

welcome to healthcaremagic portal
The effect on the other eye will not be due to glaucoma valve,but the disease itself is likely to effect the other eye.The treating physician is to keep a watchful eye on the other eye to start treatment at the earliest.
