I have just been diagnosed with Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma (PXF). I am still in shock as I have had good eye health history and just went to my eye specialist to get my glasses upgraded as I couldn't see where the golf ball landed any more (and not because I was hitting it 300 yards!) and also car headlights had become very glaring over the past six months. She noticed the pressure in my left eye was 28, having been in the normal range up to now. Then when she did my eye test, the right eye was fine but I could only see a faint outline on the chart when she tested my left eye. So straight to emergency to our Eye and Ear hospital and after hours of tests, drops, dilation, the diagnosis was confirmed. Prescribed Xalatan drops initially and follow up appointment with their specialist Glaucoma Clinic. There's no history in our family of Glaucoma and I am concerned to read this form of Secondary Open Angle glaucoma runs a more aggressive course, has a faster rate of progression and has a poor response to medical therapy than Primary Open Angle glaucoma. A lot to take in over an Easter weekend! It sucks but onward and upward to see the specialist and get my Field of Vision assessed and prognosis for the future.
