Physical training and ocular yogic exercise in home: good alternative options to control the high-tension form of primary open angle glaucoma during the repeated COVID-19 waves

Abstract

A defected visual field of optic nerve degeneration is referred to as glaucoma. Glaucoma is caused by diabetes mellitus, aging, black ethnicity, and family history, but the most important modifiable risk factor is elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). The most common type of glaucoma-inducing irreversible blindness, high-tension primary open angle glaucoma (HTPOAG), is described by an IOP > 21 mmHg and an open angle of the anterior chamber of the eye [1].
