FAQs on Glaucom Eye Drop

Glaucom eye drops don't contain beta blockers; they're alpha-adrenergic agonists. This means they stimulate alpha-adrenergic receptors in the eye, lowering intraocular pressure by reducing fluid production. The drug has minimal impact on the heart and lungs.
Glaucom eye drops can cause drowsiness, fatigue, blurred vision, or abnormal vision. These side effects may impair your ability to drive or operate machinery, particularly at night or in low light. Refrain from driving or using machinery until these symptoms disappear.
Glaucom Eye Drops can affect blood pressure, potentially lowering or raising it. If you're on blood pressure medication, tell your doctor before using Glaucom Eye Drops. Monitor your blood pressure regularly while using these drops.
Glaucom eye drops don't dilate pupils; instead, they may rarely cause constriction (miosis), potentially leading to night vision problems, halos, or glare. Report these symptoms to your doctor.
