Does caffeine make glaucoma worse?
MAR 02, 2019
Question:
Does caffeine affect glaucoma, and should I limit my intake?
Answer:
There may be a small effect of increased intraocular pressure with caffeine consumption. However, there is no evidence that this effect is clinically significant. I would say go ahead and enjoy your coffee, tea or energy drink—always with an “eye” toward reasonable moderation, as in all things.
