Bro, you stated the one that you tested with is the never model. So, I guess it should be more "accurate" than the older models that I was tested with.
And what qualification the so called 2 optometrists have? Only recommend to go see specialist if reading is 25 and above!!!
FYI, my daughter at age 14, while in Melbourne went to an optometrist (who obtained a Doctor of Optometry from Uni of Melbourne) and had her eyes' pressure tested with the puff machine ( Ramjade - you taught me an easier way to described the machines, haha) and got readings of 24 and the Optometrist was so worried that she insisted that my wife takes my daughter to a specialist and was willing to refer my daughter to one! And when my daughter revisited the optometrist to get another pair of specs a few months later, she reminded my wife to make sure that my daughter go seek an specialist's opinion in respect to her high eyes pressure readings. Of course, my daughter have since then visited a specialist.
Bro, if any family member (auntie or uncle included) of yours have Glaucoma, I strongly recommend that you go a specialist to have your eyes pressure test taken. And if you feel your vision has deteriorated, even slightly, I suggest to go take a vision test too for your records so that in the future you have some reference to check if you vision deteriorates any future.
Seeing a specialist and taking the vision test here in Malaysia is cheap compared to what I pay in SG (afer conversion). But, if you are ever told you need to go for an operation, best you get a second opinion from SG. I have been seeing my SG specialist for 5 years (after being told here by a so called top Glaucoma specialist in KL that I need to go for an operation) and my pressure has maintained and I'm still using the same medication she prescribed to me when I first met her.
May i know what is the doctors name in KL? i have high pressure in my eyes and would like to do some check up.And what qualification the so called 2 optometrists have? Only recommend to go see specialist if reading is 25 and above!!!
