Welcome, Maryanne. I can imagine that being diagnosed with Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma (PXF) came as a shock. I'm bringing in @dsh33782 @carolee888 @ew100 @lioness @riflemanz64 @ashby1947 and @azpowells to share their experiences and offer support.
When do you see the specialist?

@maryann2 Welcome to connect .I was diagnosed in my 30,s and started on Timoptic drops for a long time then a specialist took me off since my pressures stayed within limits For a long time I didn't have to use them but in older age 60,s specialist saw my pressure was going up so put me on Latanoprest every night which I'm still on ,I'm almost 80 and pressure is maintaining so it's important to see a specialist. Hope this helps .Glad you reached out to this community .
