NURSING 2 2 - Exam 3 Outline. / NURSING 2 2 - Exam 3 Outline. Please know: What is Glaucoma and Open-angle Glaucoma? In open-angle glaucoma the channels (trabecular meshwork or canal of Schlemm) that drain fluid within the eye become blocked, causing pressure to rise. This increased pressure pushes back on to the vitreous humor, causing damage to the retina. Normal intraocular pressures (IOP) ranges from 10 to 21 mm Hg, and as the pressure begins to rise it causes a gradual loss of vision.
