Guest guest Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I know this is a long shot but has anyone with asthma and glaucoma had their glaucoma improve while taking Xolair for asthma. A year and a half into my Xolair regimen my optic pressure has dropped to the lowest I can remember in ten years with glaucoma. This has occured without any change in my glaucoma medications. Also, on my last visual field test a small blind peripheral area in one of my eyes that has been there for years was gone. Maybe just a fluke of the field test machine settings. But .... I guess one could theorize that if their glaucoma was caused by allergic inflammation in the fluid drainage tissues of the eye, and a subsequent raise in optic fluid pressure, then maybe a body-wide reduction in allegic inflammation responses from Xolair could improve one's glaucoma. Any other members have experience or thoughts on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
