Description
Brimolol Eye Drop is a highly reputed prescription drug intended for the treatment of ocular hypertension and glaucoma. Due to its effect of lowering intraocular pressure caused by excessive fluid accumulation in the eyes, it helps avoid such critical complications and includes loss of vision. It is manufactured in India, but this ophthalmic solution can be ordered for shipment in Canada or the USA, too.
Usage of Brimolol Eye Drop
Treatment of Glaucoma
Glaucoma is optic nerve damage caused often due to high pressure in the eye. Brimolol Eye Drop lowers intraocular pressure, thereby protecting the optic nerve and thus saving vision. It is to be used alone or in conjunction with other medicines to achieve an improved result.
Therapy for Ocular Hypertension
Ocular hypertension is a condition where fluid accumulation increases the pressure inside the eye. Brimolol Eye Drop eases the outflow of fluid, which decreases the pressure levels and prevents further complications such as vision loss and damage to the optic nerve.
Advantages of Brimolol Eye Drop
Effective Reduction of Pressure: Decrease high eye pressure, which lessens the possibility of developing glaucoma into blindness.
Prevention of Blindness: They prevent secondary complications resulting from ocular hypertension.
Ease of Application: It is safe for use on a daily basis with medical care due to its ease of application.
How Brimolol Eye Drop Works
Brimolol Eye Drop has two active ingredients:
Timolol is a beta-blocker that decreases fluid production in the eye.
Brimonidine: It is a sympathomimetic agent that increases fluid drainage from the eye.
Together, they control the manufacture and outflow of aqueous humour and so decrease the pressure inside the eyes.
How to use Brimolol Eye Drop
Gently wash your hands before instilling.
Tilt your head straight forward and pull the lower eyelid down to create a pocket.
Hold the dropper close but don’t touch your eye.
Instill the quantity prescribed into the affected eye.
Immediately close your eyes and do not blink too many times.
Clean off any extra moisture from the eyes and shun rubbing your eyes after applying.
Side Effects
Eye redness, inflammation, or stinging at the spot of application.
Vision is slightly blurred for a little while.
Drowsiness or somnolence
These effects are normally reversible. Report the side effects if they fail to disappear to your health care provider.
Safety Precautions
Driving: Avoid driving a car or running machinery until dizziness or blurry vision is subsided, because temporary loss of vision may create blurry vision.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: If pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a doctor. If dose is skipped, the patient should skip the missed dose and continue his or her regular dosing schedule. Don’t double dosing.
