Hello everyone. I stumbled onto this platform. I was diagnosed with Glaucoma about four years ago. I was placed on an eyedrop—Cusimolo and a drop Optic nerve.W was aorking and afforded them. But, I went back to school for advanced study—MSc.it has not been easy but I am going forward. And, presently, I am terribly in need of drugs. for my eyes.I couldn't afford them for some time now because I am not working. It is affecting me physically, emotionally, and psychologically.

Please if anyone can help me with a drug for my eyes I will and ever be grateful.

I am writing with pains.

thanks.

Hello CindyKatherine.

Your glaucoma drops can only be prescribed and I would strongly advise not to obtain them from anyone else.

There may be a charity in your country that will help fund your prescription.

Please speak to your eye consultant and tell them the problem, as it is so important to treat your glaucoma.

Sightsavers may be able to advise you. sightsavers.org/

Thank you, I am most thankful. I have never heard of a charity organisation her for eye care but, I will ask and search as you suggested. Speaking with my consultant has been helpful but there is nothing she can do it seems. And for eye drops, yes, it was prescribed—Cusimolo., and my drug—Optic nerve.

Your response is great. It means a lot and I am very grateful ❤
