I HAVE HAD PSEUDO EXFOLIATION FOR A LONG TIME . I AM 72 NOW AND JUST HAD CATARACT SURGERY. MY DR. WOULD NOT USE A CORRECTIVE LENS. I AM CURIOUS WHY HE WOULD NOT? AN EXPLANATION WOULD BE GREAT. THANKS!
Asaf Bullkich I wish they would look into this. More! I have subluxation where my contact lens has now fallen into the eye. Hospital has said I need op to move the lens into the space in front of the iris.....
Dr. Croley, I was diagnosed recently with Psevdo exfoliation glaucoma. Two days before my visit to the eye specialist I’ve notice that in a morning my eyes were glued to each other with some substance. Eye specialist told me that I have mild form of Psevdo exfoliation glaucoma, eye pressure was 29. I was prescribed eye drops Xalatan, which was very helpful. I do not have cataract. And my vision is O'K at the moment. I’m 72 year old. My question to you is: with eye drops and maybe surgery how many years I have before I will lose my vision completely?
THANKS FOR THE EXPLANATION. I AM GETTING READY TO HAVE CATARACT SURGERY WITH THE ISSUE DESCRIBED.

Hi Dr. Croley
You didn't mentioned iridodonesis, phacodonesis and subluxation of the lens that goes along with pseudoexfoliation
Asaf Bullkich I wish they would look into this. More! I have subluxation where my contact lens has now fallen into the eye.
