Yesterday my ophthalmologist diagnosed me with very mild case of Glaucoma during annual checkup.

I am on Coreg and Eliquis for AFIB & stroke.

Please share your thoughts on Xalatan (2.5 ml) based on your experience & any advice.

Hi - I am on Xalatan eye drops, have been for about 12 years because of Glaucoma. I have no problems with them. I am on Nebivolol, Diltiazem, Ramipril and my anticoagulant is Rivaroxban for AF and HF. I used to be on two lots of eye drops ( I cannot remember the name of the other one) which I did have a problem with, it had a beta blocker in it so when I started AF meds in 2014 it did have some side effects. My eye consultant they said it was okay just to be on Xalatan.

I had glaucoma before AF diagnosed. On Travatan. No problems that I know of.
