Today I went to my newly selected ophthalmologist. He used his Goldman applanation tonometer to measure my IOP. Here is what he found:

Left 34; Right 48

Just to be clear what I mean by that, my left eye IOP is 34mm Hg and right eye IOP is 48 mm Hg.

My wife gave me the new pair of Oakley prescription eyeglass frames I wanted for my birthday. It seemed like a small inconvenience that Oakley required me to obtain a new prescription before I could actually get my glasses. My existing prescription was about two years old, but it was obvious to me that my vision had not changed one bit. I was seeing 20/20, or better, with the current prescription and I was sure it was fine.
