What Causes Pressure In Eyes?

Today an Opthamologist said the pressure in both eyes was 33. And said she wouldn t start me on drops since this was the first time I d seen her and she would recheck in one year. My sister worked in the medical field and jumped all over me about getting a second option in her opinion a good doctor wouldn t ignore this.
