For Glaucoma, Narrow Angle "I was prescribed pilocarpine drops for suspected narrow-angle glaucoma. Two ophthalmologists disagree as to what exactly I have - narrow vs. open-angle glaucoma. Took these drops before bed until I was able to meet with ophthalmologist #2 for 1 month. In one eye, it created a cellophane effect - my vision in that eye was like looking through cellophane. Stopped using the drops, and my vision cleared up. Warning: The first time I administered the drops, I had a severe headache. It went around my head from the ears up and lasted about 1 hour. Gradually, the headaches subsided. Except for the cellophane effect, my eyes did 'feel' better. Off to find a 3rd ophthalmologist to find out what they diagnose me with!"
