Can eye overuse worsen glaucoma?

Submitted by Boho774 on Wed, 02/27/2013 - 4:39pm

I am 75 and have glaucoma but I can still read and drive (carefully). Is there such a thing as using the eyes too much? Like hours on the computer or hours reading. We know muscles can be overused why not optic nerves? I know it is good to take breaks but I suspect too much use can worsen glaucoma especially for seniors. Any advice or personal experience?
