I visited an OD/MD in Florida for 8 years. My eye pressures were consistently high, but my optic nerve remained healthy. Despite the high pressures, no drops were prescribed as my optic nerve looked good. After moving to Alabama, a new OD/MD diagnosed me with glaucoma and initiated treatment with Lantanoprost and laser to relieve pressures. Subsequently, Durysta injections were recommended due to side effects from Lantanoprost. However, after doing some research, I'm now uncertain about the treatment and feel the need for a second opinion. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
