No, Lasik does not cause Glaucoma. However you may not be able to have Lasik if you have Glaucoma. This does however depend on the extent of your glaucoma and whether or not there is any optic nerve damage. Glaucoma is caused by a build up of pressure in your eye and during Lasik eye surgery the pressure is your eye will be raised for a short period of time. This is why you may not be able to have the procedure. Whether or not you can have Lasik is very much down to the individual surgeon so it is something you need to discuss with them.
