i was thinking towards giant cell arteritis but you are quite young to be having that. You could meet your dentist for an assessment . What you are having has nothing to do with glaucoma to the best of my knowledge
Thanks Doc. And please why do i still feel aches in my eyes even after using my glasses. This usually happens whenever i use my phone for like 35mins and above. There is this feeling of inconveinience which results to eye ache.

yes I came across a research article recently that states sleeping on the side could cause an increase in the eye pressure. Probably , that could be an explanation for your experience.
But glaucoma does not run in the family. The only disease that runs in my family is high BP/hypertension. So i don't know why I'm the first to have glaucoma. I feel depressed at times, i just have to learn how to sleep with my back every time. may God help me.

betaxolol eye drop is used in managing glaucoma . Pls do adhere to your meds as instructed.
Hello Sir. I've been using betaxolol for a month now. I notice the eyes don't ache anymore but i do feel uncomfortable when i sleep on my side, i do have this feeling that the eyes want to come out which makes the eyes achy at times so i always sleep on my back. Sleeping on my back gives me a relief.

Even if the plane was transporting weapons they have no right to do what they did. Iran is welcomed in Syria and it is a partner in the fight against the terrorists America and its western thugs are arming against Assad government. But we know uncle sam's tactics as usual, create tension and bully every country that refuses to bow to them.

Foreign Affairs › Iran's Military Is Armed To The Teeth With Lots Of Missiles by Antiochus(op): 7:16am On Jul 05, 2020
And it has built the region's largest missile force.

Here's What You Need To Remember: Iran’s missile collection is quite remarkable and draws on lessons gained during the Iran-Iraq war. During that conflict, Tehran learned that it’s cheaper and easier to have a strong defense (many varied missiles) than a strong offense, such as airplanes that are expensive, require lots of maintenance, and could result in pilot deaths.

Missiles are an essential tool of the Iranian regime. They are used for power projection, particularly towards Iran’s neighbors, or for anti-access/area-denial closer to home, in particular over the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf. Tehran’s missile collection is among the most diverse in the Middle East because Iran relies on modifications to Soviet/Russian and Chinese designs—although there are some domestic improvements thrown into the mix. Iran has thousands of short and medium-range missiles, and could very likely hit targets as far away as eastern Africa, Eastern and Southern Europe, Russia, India, and western China. Here are some of their most potent designs.

Fateh-110

The Fateh-110 development program started in the mid-1990s. Testing continued through the late 1990s and early 2000s, with serial production commencing around 2003. It has a range of about 210 kilometers (about 130 miles), with a suspected 500 kilogram (approximately 1,100 pounds) warhead. It is road-mobile when installed on mobile launchers, which were likely modified from other launch platforms to handle the Fateh-110.

Iran claims it has the ability to mass produce the Fateh-110. It has also been rumored that Hezbollah was supplied with some number of Fathe-110s from Iran, though this is difficult to confirm, as Israel destroyed a large inventory of Hezbollah munitions in strikes during 2007.


Shahab-1

Closer to home, the Shahab-1 is essentially a variant of the Russian SS-1 Scud missile, which is itself similar to the Nazi-developed V-2 Rocket that terrorized Britain during the Second World War. Like the SS-1 Scud, it is liquid-fueled, and has a range of about 330 kilometers, or just over 200 miles.


The Iranian Shahab-1 originated during the 1980s conflict with Iraq. Iran needed something with greater reach than provided by available artillery and wasn’t willing to risk its fleet of aircraft. (Many of Iran’s airframes were—and still are—vintage American planes, so servicing them with spare parts is problematic.)

Iran turned to Libya and Syria for missiles, launchers, and transporters. After the war with Iraq, Iran wanted a domestic production capability and turned to North Korea for expertise. Today, Iran possesses a variety of Shahab-1 variants with differing ranges, payloads, and accuracies.

Sejjil

The Sejjil series of missiles are among Iran’s most capable — they have a range of 2,000 kilometers (around 1,250 miles) and a warhead in the 500-1,000 kilogram range (about 1,100 to 2,200 pounds).

The Sejjil is speculated to be a domestic Iranian design, in contrast to most of Iran’s missile arsenal, which is wholly or partially based on other countries’ designs.

One of the advantages of the Sejjil missile is its fuel type—solid-propellant instead of liquid. This is advantageous due to solid fuel rockets greater robustness and speed of deployment. In contrast to liquid-fueled missiles that require a greater deal of preparations and specific launch conditions. (For instance, historically liquid fuel has to be kept quite cool, resulting in a large energy requirement.) If paired with a mobile launcher, the Sejjil would be a large, powerful, and rapidly-deployable threat.

Armed to the Teeth

Iran’s missile collection is quite remarkable and draws on lessons gained during the Iran-Iraq war. During that conflict, Tehran learned that it’s cheaper and easier to have a strong defense (many varied missiles) than a strong offense, such as airplanes that are expensive, require lots of maintenance, and could result in pilot deaths.

there are no particular rules. The only rule clinically significant in management of glaucoma, is applying your eye drops appropriately as recommended and adhering to your follow up appointments in monitoring if there's progression of the disease. The other rules like posture altering the eye pressure , certain foods and all that do not impact on management outcome of the disease so re not of much essence except in theory
Is a drop ok or should i apply two drops to each eye whenever i administer the Betaxolol? The doctor didn't tell me how many drop i should apply but he told me to use it twice daily, morning and evening. And i was told to buy another after exhausting the current one

well if you can afford those suppliments, they are good as they are rich in antioxidants which offers some protection to the optic nerves in the eye and reduces the chances of damage to the nerves . Go for them if you can afford them.
And what are the dos and donts of Glaucoma pateints. e.g what to eat what i shouldn't eat and i heard some body posture increases pressure within the eyes too.
