Hello family. Just question about eye pressure? anyone dealing with it.. My eye doctor did laser my two eyes due to narrow angel. He said my right eye is getting eye pressure. Does Hydrochloroquine causing this? any input will help me figure it out. I am going to see another eye doctor just to see his opinion. Thank you so much and Have Blessed day and pain free day...
Hi keith how are you? thank you. My eye doctor laser my eye kind a put a small hole there to release pressure due to my narrow angle eyes. I start taking hydrochroloquine last year and I only take one tablet a day now due to my rheumatologist said I have no lupus. my symptom's are due to auto immune disease might be fibromyalgia and rheumatoid due my joints. Not sure if I still keep taking this hydrochloroquine. My eyes pressure not bad at all does not hurts. sometimes I get headache. Are you still taking plaquenil keith? I stop the drops latanoprost due to my eyes get so red and blurry with the drops. I stop it and my eyes feels okey so far. thank you again keith
Eye pressure can be a symptom of thyroid eye disease (TED), which is sometimes associated with lupus. Other common symptoms of TED include:
- Red eyes
- Inflamed eyes
- Eye pain
- A gritty sensation, or the feeling that there’s something in the eye
- Eyelid changes, like puffing up or retracting
- Double vision
- Vision loss Show Full Answer
Yes me too and I have another eye appt the end of March for my eye doctor to check my eye pressure again. Take care yourself and God Blessed
I know being on hydroxychloriquine you need to have ur eyes checked regularly cuz it can damage them. All I’ve noticed on myself is that I can’t see like i use to close up. So I need to get me bifocals. 😕
cathy I had that done they did laser my eyes and put small hole. Narrow angle
