Dear Dr. John Hagan
My name is chia
I am from Taiwan and was a new zealand optometry student in 2002, i didnt manage to graduate. Now i am back and live in Taiwan. My prescription was -7/-7.25 during one demo on non-contact tonometr, my iop were 23/24. The optom supervisor referred me to take an complete eye exam
My iops were masured again with an instrument has a strip that touch my eyes i presumed it was goldman. The iop were 17/18 Visual field and direct ophthalmoscopy revealed heathy retina on both eye except white pressure od
I didnt learn high myopia complications until i immgrated to and studied optom in nz
During on visit last year, i showed vf to a doc he asked why u had vf before and immed perfromed oct macular scans and optic nerve scan. Macular results ok but rnfl results some are in red region. He checked my dic cup but didnt say a thing and then vf revealed no defect except both eyes had some very little defect superior contour region on both eyes the doc said it doesnt seem like glucoma
In jan 2018, i had exam with and glucoma specialist in Taiwan becuase i was so scared of risk. These are my results
Od-7.75 -75 os -8.25 -50
Va 1.0/1.0 with prescription
Cct 598/599
axial 28.13/28.44
Oct rnfl 81/80 and
94/95 axial asjusted
Air puff tonometry
Iop 1st visit 21/23 (21/20)
2nd vist 19/19
Cd 20% ?? Or 0.4*0.6 od ;cd <20% os
Good gcc ou
No tear crack and wwp ou
She concluded i dont have.glucoma but is suspected of ocular hypertenion
My question is.are oct rnfl results reliable for high myoia before and after axial adjustment?
Rnfl results are after axial adjust in green but.shifted temporally due to tilted disc
And what is the risk of getting glucoma for me?
Are My corneas considered thick?
Ps.I m an asian, with no.glucoma family history i was not premature baby
Both parenta are mild moyope
