Has anyone been. Told they have narrow angles without glaucoma? I just saw an eye doctor and I was told I have narrow angles and I have to see a specialist and am worried sick. Please anyone can reassure me? My scans and eye exam showed no other problems, I haven't been to the eye doctor in 9 years due to fear and my scans were unchanged. The optic nerves look exactly the same. I'm so scared a tumor is causing this. I'm worried sick

I don’t have it, but from what I know about it it’s nothing to worry about.
If left untreated it COULD lead to glaucoma. But you’ve been confirmed you don’t have that yet.
Your eye doctor will go over a treatment plan with you and you’ll be fine!
It’s not a sign of a tumour! Lots of people have it

Thank you so much, I'm just so worried that they will dilate my eyes and do other scans and will find a tumor because when she dilates my eyes she said they can see further back. Donyou think she would have seena tumor if there was one there? My optic nerve scans were completely unchanged in 9 years. Blood vessels and everything were identical. If there was a tumor, wouldn't that change things? There was also no swelling or anything. My mind brings me to the worst always. I also have no symptoms

Yes, they would’ve seen it. I had an eye rest recently and they showed me the scans they took, and you could see right behind my iris. If there’s something there, the scan would pick it up
