Glaucoma Risk After Eye Surgery? Who Knew!

Just found out that if you’ve had a PPV (pars plana vitrectomy) eye surgery, there’s a 5% chance you could develop glaucoma within five years—even if you had no signs before! The risk is higher if you had retinal detachment. Docs say patients should keep up with eye checks long after surgery. The why is still a mystery, but better screening could help catch it early.
