Does anybody know if eye problems, glaucoma specifically is a symptom of PCOS? My eye appt yesterday revealed to the dr that he thinks I have the beg. stages of glaucoma but he said that due to my hormonal imbalance it could be caused by that. I hate googling because I usually put so much anxiety/fear into my system i dont get anything accomplished.

Actually my optometrist told me I was Glaucoma suspect upon visiting her yesterday and I do suffer with PCOS. Have to go for more tests, will do my own research, was wondering if it was indeed related to PCOS, another thing to worry about on top of the multiple symptoms, will let you know what I find out. Good Luck!
I'm not sure if this is the same thing as glaucoma but everytime i go to the optometrist they tell me the pressure in my eyes are high..from the machine that blows the puff of air.. so we're agreeing that could be another symptom of pcos?

that is so weird! my eye doctor told me that he thought he saw the begining stages of glaucoma when he checked my eyes.. and told me to come back in 3 months. ... I never ended up going back. Im only 23.. thats not normal for glaucoma i thought

Update:
I do not have glaucoma--all the tests point towards it but just have higher pressure then normal, I guess. Comes to find out that my dad is the same way so guess that is genetic also. I have massive dry eyes and am using drops but am very glad that I dont have glaucoma.
