Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Nope, I don't but Iritis does cause glaucoma and that could be a cause for your pressure being high. Have you started on some medication for the iritis?
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
