Is there any difference of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patient with primary glaucoma after 1 month, 3 months and 6 months who is consuming green tea compared to patient not consuming green tea? 2. Is there any difference of retina nerve fibre layer in patient with primary glaucoma after 1 month, 3months and 6 months who is consuming green tea compared to patient not consuming green tea? Researchers will compare patients with primary glaucoma who are consuming green tea and normal daily drinking to see if any affect to intraocular pressure and retina nerve fibre layer.
