Others confirmed that the marijuana could have a significant adjunctive effect in glaucoma patients, with Cuendet and colleagues reporting that 12/16 eyes of 10 patients had a reduction of 15 percent or more (white widow). Flom and colleagues (1975) concluded that in normal volunteers in acute studies the lowering of IOP was proportional to the "high," and that experienced users who did not experience a "high" did not have a lowering of IOP. Merritt and colleagues (1980) studied the blood pressure (BP) and IOP of 18 glaucoma patients in short-term studies.

However, the health relevance of these findings to human marijuana use remains uncertain. Conclusive evidence for increased malignancy, or enhanced acquisition of HIV, or the development of AIDS, has not been associated with marijuana use.
