Does vitreous hemorrhage cause glaucoma?

Vitreum bleeding is not caused by glaucoma, should be judged according to the amount of vitreous bleeding.

If the patient has less vitreous bleeding, only a small number of blood cells in the vitreous body, generally will not cause glaucoma. If the patient has more vitreous bleeding, blood may accumulate in the local, so that intraocular pressure increases, leading to increased aqueous outflow resistance, and then cause glaucoma. Secondly, a large amount of blood accumulated in the vitreous body may also produce compression on the lens iris diaphragm, so that the angle becomes narrow, affecting the outflow of aqueous humor, causing glaucoma.

Patients should pay attention to rest at ordinary times, ensure adequate sleep, sleep can use wedge pillow high head, help reduce intraocular pressure, to prevent glaucoma.
