Has anyone been told by their ophthalmologist that there are signs of glaucoma?

I had an appointment yesterday and my oph told me I had optic cupping which was more consisted with glaucoma.
I had to repeat my visual field test which also showed signs of glaucoma. My diagnosis isn’t definite yet, I’ll repeat my tests later again to determine if I have both or just iih.

Has anyone had a similar experience?
Anyone had been told they had signs but turned out to be normal?
And does anyone have both iih and glaucoma?

I found out today I might have glaucoma, a high possibility. I have developed irreversible damage to my optic nerve, with a fast progression. I’m 26 years old.

Did anyone get diagnosed at an early age?
And are there people that started with a rapid progression but with meds have got better?
And do you have any useful tips that help you with symptoms?
