Brief Answer:
You should get tested every six monthly for glaucoma
Detailed Answer:
Hwy thanks for the question . if the pressure of the eye is under control and your ophthalmologist says everything else is okay then just a six monthly check up is fine . If the glaucoma is under control then the long term prognosis is good and your ophthalmologist would test you periodically for any progression of the disease . Hope it helps . Regards
