Hello, elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) can potentially damage the optic nerve, leading to glaucoma—a condition that significantly impacts daily life. Therefore, controlling IOP is crucial. Several approaches are available for lowering IOP; currently, pharmacological treatment is the most common clinical method. During drug therapy, it is also important to ensure adequate rest for your eyes and avoid staying up late. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
