    At the risk of making our already overly sedentary, overly confused population shun or fear yoga, I think this is pretty close to a sensational headline.  Fatal is a word we use to describe death.  It is not a word that is used to describe the condition of the optic nerve.  No doubt that yoga causes an increase in IOP.  So does playing the trumpet.  So does giving intravitreal injections.  We all know this! (We should know this.)  Until Dr. Ritch and his colleagues can tell us something new, please do not resort to such deceptive and innacurate headlines.
