It's also important for black people, who are more susceptible to glaucoma. Make eyedrops a daily habit. Each time you insert the drops, close your eye for 60 seconds. That way you won't lose any of the medicine. Jump on your two-wheeler.

But studies show that when people with raised eye pressure used a stationary bike for 30 minutes three times weekly for ten weeks, they reduced their eye pressure. In fact, the exercise worked as well as anti-glaucoma drugs. Do not stop taking anti-glaucoma medications on your own, warns Dr. Goldberg. If you want to try exercise as an alternative, you'll need to work with your doctor to create a program suitable for you and to monitor the pressure in your eyes, he says. If you suspect that you have a medical problem, please seek competent medical care.
