Usually, unfortunately, high pressure, unless it’s very high, it is not symptomatic. If it is very high, you will have pain, light sensitivity
Most people with high intraocular pressure do not experience any symptoms. Regular eye examinations are important to identify if you have high intraocular pressure and any damage to your optic nerve.
You usually will not have any symptoms from high pressure. If your pressures go very high, you may experience pain, blurry vision, and discomfort. Having elevated eye pressures for a long period of time may also result in a loss of peripheral vision.
In many instances, one can have high intraocular pressure and be asymptomatic. However, one can experience a red eye, blurred vision, and eye/head pain as well.
