My pressures got to 23+, but have dipped below 11 with the lowest dose brimonidine drop, just twice a day in just one eye. The highest dose brimonidine drop (0.2 vs. 0.1) done three times a day can get eye pressure to drop as much as 20%, so you know all the other things I'm doing really did the vast majority of my pressure drop.

I figure the drop takes it down about 1.5 mm Hg. My doctor said I may need to completely stop the low dose I am on, because my pressures are nearly too low.

This is what can be done with just eating and supplementing differently, along with walking back my near-sighted prescription.

I had the once a day drop with side effects. Was yellow cap, now purple 2x a day.
