USES
In Glaucoma Tretment
Glaucoma is a state in which the optic nerve is damaged. The main cause of glaucoma is increased pressure in the eye which is often hereditary in nature.
The increased pressure in the eye, also known as intraocular pressure can damage the optic nerve, which is responsible for sending images to the brain. If the damage aggravates, it could lead to permanent vision loss or total blindness in a few years.
In the initial stages, glaucoma has no symptoms or pain, therefore it is necessary to go for regular eye checkups so the doctor can diagnose and treat glaucoma before it causes vision loss or total blindness.
Symptoms:
- Redness in the eyes
- Pain in the eye
- Upset stomach
- Nausea
- Blurry vision
- Seeing halos around lights
Types of glaucoma
There are several types of glaucoma, but the four most common types are:
- Open-angle Glaucoma- It is the most common type of glaucoma, accounting for almost 90% of glaucoma cases. It is also called primary or chronic glaucoma. It's called open-angle glaucoma because the angle between the cornea and the iris is open and wide, which results in the slow clogging of the drainage canals in the eyes.
- Angle-closure glaucoma- Angle-closure glaucoma is rarer than open-angle glaucoma. It's called angle-closure glaucoma because the angle between the iris and cornea is narrow and closed. It happens due to the blockage in the drainage canals. And that is responsible for the sudden rise in pressure inside the eyes.
In Ocular Hypertension Treatment
Ocular Hypertension is a state in which the pressure in the eyes, also called intraocular pressure, is higher than normal. The range of normal eye pressure is 10-21mm Hg, in the condition of ocular hypertension the pressure is above 21mm Hg.
The excess production or improper drainage of the fluid in the eyes is what is responsible for the high-pressure levels. These high-pressure levels if not reduced could cause optic nerve damage which results in permanent vision loss or total blindness.

How to Use
Use the eye drops for the dose and duration as directed by your health expert.
Wash your hands before you apply the drops, in order to avoid contamination, do not touch the tip of the dropper or let it touch the eye surface.
Lean your head back, look upwards, and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pocket. Hold the dropper directly above the pocket and put one drop in the eye. Look down, slowly close your eyes and place one finger at the corner of your eye. Apply pressure to the corner of the eye for 1-2 minutes, so this will prevent the medicine to drain out.
Follow the same directions when applying the medication to the other eyes. Do not rinse the dropper. If you are using any other medications, apply them after an interval of at least 5 mins.
