SLT is an option?
Hi all, I have been diagnosed 'Ocular Hypertension' (27/23). I have started Latanoprost but quickly started quite bad reaction ( shortness of breath, palpitation, tight throat etc), ended up calling ambulance par instruction from GP practice. I had tried "Timolol" before Latanoprost and experienced

Glaucoma Eye Drops and Heart Disease.
As a 75 yr old with heart disease, ( triple bypass 10yrs ago ) I’ve been diagnosed with the onset of glaucoma. I’ve been prescribed two eye drop medications. Travoprost, and Brinzolamide/Timolol Mylan. The side effects fact sheet is a pretty scary read etc, with particular emphasis on the heart. I

Lowering eye pressure
Pre trabeculectomy I was on lantoprost for 3 months and it didn’t really lower my eye pressure and for the other eye I was on it for 6 months pre surgery. Tried fixapost and Timolol briefly before surgery and i don’t think it worked. My eye pressures have gone up and the consultant has put me on monopost

heartburn on Timolol drops?
I have narrow angles, pressure 15 and had Iridotomy a few weeks ago, I was given steroid drops after and on my follow up I now have high pressure 30 which I didn't have before so consultant thinks its the steroid drops. I've finished them now and she has prescribed Timolol drops for a short time to reduce

Dorzolomide/timolol switched from drop a bottle to single unit doses
In my repeat prescriptions, I have been switched from the 5ML dropper bottle to single unit doses. I wasn’t contacted by my GP first so I have no idea why, but because they’re single unit doses and I have to use it morning and night, effectively I have only been provided with half what I usually get

Anyone had a bad reaction to Bimatoprost ?
When I was first diagnosed with glaucoma I was given Latanoprost but had to stop using those due to extreme itchiness . I then moved on to using Bimatoprost , which at first seemed fine , no irritation . However , after a few weeks I began to feel very tired but blamed being hypothyroid even though

latanoprost vs timolol
My 85 year old mother has been on latanoprost for 2 months. She developed a condition where her left eye now looks inwards towards her nose. It may be palsy of the sixth nerve. Has anyone else ever had similar symptoms? Also, is anyone having good results using timolol instead? Thank you for sharing

Simbrinza eye drops
I have been prescribed Simbrinza eye drops as a new method of treatment to bring my eye pressures down. My eye pressures are 23 and 20. These new drops are to be taken twice a day together with Bimatoprost once per day. I have done some background reading on these new drops and the side effects were

Drops affecting eyelashes
I'm 41, had a combined trab & lens replacement in right eye 2 years ago and just lens replacement in left eye a few months later. Now the only drops I take are Dorzolamide timolol in the left eye, twice a day.I switched to the preservative free drops a few months ago but I think it's negatively affecting

Slightly low(below60) Diastolic Blood Pressure
Does anyone have a slightly lower diastolic blood pressure ( mine is sometimes 58,59) whilst taking Brinzolamide and Bimatoprost? On two occasions I have felt a bit faint. Thanks a lot.

Bitstoprost
I have ocular hypertension but the pressure in my left high remains stubbornly high and my eye drops have been upgraded to Bimatoprost. Have any of you found it’s made any difference or experienced any problems with this one!

Longtime glaucoma patient
Hi. I just wanted to say that my experience with Glaucoma has been over many, many years. I’ve been very fortunate to have had treatment, isoptocarpine which was horrible. I have Myopia and these drops made it almost impossible to see for any length of time. They were to reduce the eye pressure quickly

On bimatoprost ( lumigan). Have noticed bulge, looks like I'm wearing a contact lens
Hello everyone, I wonder if anyone can comment on this. At my last two eye appointments, when my consultant was examining my eyes, he asked if I was wearing a contact lens on my left eye. This was surprising as had not mentioned this on previous examinations , and anyway I wear glasses. I checked myself

Hylo Tear before eye drops
I take Timolol twice a day (10 am & 10pm). One day a week I need to be out by 9.15 and so take my Timolol early. As I do voluntary work on a local Nature Reserve it is not a very appropriate place to be taking the Hylo Tear. So I would like to administer the lubricant BEFORE the Timolol. While the instructions

Tissue Press Method for Instilling Eyedrops
Hello from Canada. While I am new here, I am not new to glaucoma. I’ve been taking drops for 10 years and have had two SLT surgeries. Covid delays have really slowed testing and seeing an opthamologist so I am really not sure about the progression of my glaucoma. I have to wait until April for a visual
