Glossary Ocular Hypertension

condition where eye pressure is higher than normal

Ocular Hypertension, also known as Elevated Intraocular Pressure, refers to a condition where the pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure) is higher than normal. This increased pressure can potentially damage the optic nerve, leading to glaucoma if left untreated. Regular eye exams are crucial for monitoring and managing this condition to prevent vision loss.
