Can Masturbation Lead to Glaucoma or Blindness?

Hello, I would like to ask does masturbation cause glaucoma or blindness?

1 Answer
Dr. Sumeet Agrawal

Ophthalmologist/ Eye Surgeon

Answered on 18th Sept '24

Masturbation has nothing to do with glaucoma or blindness. The eye pressure causing some visual disturbance is glaucoma. One of the most common activities in human life is masturbation, in which people do not harm their health. If this is the case for you, if you notice hazy vision or experience eye pain, go to your eye doctor for the right diagnosis and treatment.

I'm a 23 year old female. I am overweight. I'm starting to have vision issues. Is this possibility weight related?

Female | 23

Being overweight can sometimes result in vision problems, particularly if it causes a condition known as diabetic retinopathy. The symptoms may include seeing floaters, blurriness, or having trouble seeing at night. Shedding pounds and stabilizing blood sugar levels can assist in rectifying such vision problems.

She has a eye pressure rate 26-27

Female | 15

An eye pressure between 26-27 is a bit higher than the normal. This can be the first indicator of a disorder named glaucoma. Nevertheless, these signs may be related to decreased vision, eye pain, or no symptoms. Excessive eye pressure is the cause of visual impairment; therefore, an eye examination is essential. The course of action generally includes using eye drops or surgery to reduce pressure levels and keep your sight safe.

I can't see distance people

Female | 21

You might have a problem looking at distant objects which may indicate myopia (nearsightedness). Do not forget to visit an ophthalmologist who will carry out a full eye examination to know the reason behind your vision problems and to receive the correct treatment.

I have got retinal gas treatment before 7 weeks, now is that possible to use air transport as of tomorrow?

Male | 50

You might notice changes in air pressure while flying after such a procedure. This could be uncomfortable or slow down the healing process. So, it’s better to postpone your trip until your eyes fully recover from surgery.

I need optic nerve atrophy treatment

Male | 48

Reduced optic nerve activity can show itself through the symptoms of inability to see the sharp image, obvious zone, or inability to see in the darkness. Several different reasons can be behind this condition, such as injury, specific diseases like glaucoma, or insufficient blood flow. The treatment approach often involves targeting the very problem at the source. It’s necessary to have an eye specialist carry out a thorough examination so that the best course of action can be determined. Therapies, or the adjustment of a lifestyle, may be recommended by them to get the best visual acuity and comfort. Call for professional help to discuss your choices and learn it’s better to handle eye problems at the onset.
