Problems with vision or focusing may cause nausea or vomiting. Nausea is a general symptom with many causes; however, nausea that accompanies eye pain may be due to glaucoma. Severe eye or head pain and vision loss can all result in nausea. Eye pressure may cause pain or nausea induced vomiting and dizziness, which makes it hard to concentrate or focus on an object. Sensitivity to light may also cause nausea and should be checked out right away.

2. Physical Changes In Eye Appearance

Some patients with glaucoma can expect to see visual changes to their eyes as the disease progresses. These may include a change in the color of the iris or the thin, circular structure in the eye, and red-rimming, swollen, or encrusted eyelids. Dry, itchy, red eyes or constant watering may also be a sign of glaucoma. It should be noted that cloudy eyes usually refer to cataracts; however, any physical change in the appearance of eyes could detect a vision problem.
