Steroids are widely used in the management of inflammatory and allergic
conditions. Despite their therapeutic benefits, steroid use is associated with several ocular side

from steroid use can lead to glaucomatous optic nerve damage and irreversible visual loss.
However, data on the prevalence of steroid-induced ocular hypertension in patients using topical
and systemic steroids in Ethiopia are limited
