Increased eye pressure/glaucoma, anyone has dealt with it?

@Sunniva can’t access this. Mercolas site is rubbish now.

@Ecstatic_Hamster - I think you can join with an email, no charge, and access all content. I think I did that once, and I get email notifications of new articles.

@Ecstatic_Hamster - here is the pdf version on mercola's website. Does it work?

@Ecstatic_Hamster thanks for the info. I believe I was told mine is open angle.
are the vitamins and melatonin you are mixing in a powder or liquid form? do you use distilled water to mix all or bacteriostatic water?
are you actually an ophthalmologist? what do you think of Taustin eye drops for lowering eye pressure?
My hope would be to keep improving my health that at same point my eye pressure would normalize

@Sunniva thanks
I have been using Magnoil from Idealabs, topical magnesium dissolved in DSMO for a month probably, but I do not think it helped with my eye pressure.
I'm wondering If I would use this around my eyes like @Ecstatic_Hamster suggested

I think haidut once mentioned 3g of vitamin b3 and 3g of b6 fixed glaucoma.
-
@izkrov - You have an excellent memory.
From Haidut's website.
Niacinamide + pyruvate may treat glaucoma (human study) -
@GRay I'm not a doctor. It isn't bacteriostatic because I'm putting it on my skin around the eye.
This actually works very well. I am an expert in this area as I deal with this all the time with a loved one and we own a good tonometer so we can see what is working and what isn't.
It isn't pressure that is the issue although this is all that they treat here in the West. The reality is much of the world has glaucoma without a rise in IOP at all.
The drops I am using are very protective of vision and they lower pressure due to the thiamine which is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor and opens up the drainage by raising CO2.
But you should see a competent specialist so you can get this monitored.

@Ecstatic_Hamster thank you
what are your thoughts on the RX eye drops Xalatan and Travatan Z or the SLT laser treatment to lower IOP?
-
@GRay carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and beta blocker drops are safest. Prostaglandin drops not so much. The “drops” I make work through carbonic anhydrase inhibition. My loved one had a laser iredectomy but it isn’t enough. Not sure it is actually useful.
