Is it possible to have high blood pressure of the eyes?

C. J. asked:


A student of mine pulled out a bottle of prescription eye drops today, telling me that he had high blood pressure of the eyes. He said that if it’s not treated he can develop glaucoma. He’s 16, and this sounds completely illogical, but, I also didn’t major in biology or medicine in school.
