Hi Veronica, this depends on how advanced the Glaucoma is in your client and their fitness level. As a general rule of thumb, I would avoid having them lie down for long periods of time due to the pressure in the eyes, avoid any inversions, or fast movements. Nausea is also very common for those with Glaucoma. If lying down I would prop their head up slightly if comfortable for them. Simple exercises to improve balance and proprioception would be helpful.
Yes this is a 61 year old reasonably fit trim woman who has previously had a mastectomy. She has raised intraocular pressure which is really a pre-glaucoma situation I guess. I know that she can't do anything which puts her head lower than her heart & had thought that I might be able to modify several exercises simply by raising her head. It would be great to offer as wide a repertoire as possible. Thank you for your valuable suggestions the
