I was diagnosed with cataract a year ago. Left untreated, after 6 months. My eye pressure suddenly rises. It reached to 44 mm hg due to uveitis. Doctor prescribed me diflusap and combigan. Now the situation is much under control. I want to know that after a cataract surgery, is there a chance to develop glaucoma at any stage in my life?

Cataract and glaucoma are not related or cataract is not the cause of glaucoma . YO may get glaucoma irrespective of cataract surgery
