In this interview from AAO 2017, Dr. Anne Coleman discusses how some lifestyle choices can impact intraocular pressure. Based on her own research and findings from other studies, Dr. Coleman recommends moderate coffee intake, not consuming large quantities of water in a short period of time, aerobic exercise and avoiding head down positions during yoga. She finds her patients often like being involved in their own care, which can lead to improved patient engagement.
