Exophthalmia, Bulging Eyes And Intra Ocular Pressure
Posted: 08-31-05 06:08am

Hi, I am a very new member.

My mother suffers from exophthalmia, bulging eyes and intra ocular pressure since 1990.
With a lot a pressure one the eyes, to the point that eyelid could not cover the eye and there is too much pressure on the optic nerve
she is 59 years old.
She does not appear in public because of her bulging eyes.

Yesterday after her last checkup the eye pressure was 24, (since it was 18 before) and I am so worry about her.

I want to ask for your help and any information related to this disease.
Best clinics, doctors and … around the world.

She was using timolol (i am not sure about spell as I am a programmer) drop, and levothyroxin.
Since yesterday she uses zanatal.
Is there any other solution other than operation?

Thanks for any help.
Best regards,
mehdi
