Brinzolamide

I have been on the above for a year recently I have developed very sore small red lumps at the side of my eyes. I am very careful when the drops so that they don't spill onto my face. Any help please. I have been referred for SLT soon but don't know if I will have to continue with drops.

Hello, As they are not on your eyes as such but on the side, I would suggest making an appointment with your GP. If the SLT is successful, you may not need to use the eyedrops afterwards, but may be asked to continue if the SLT is not as successful as hoped.

I took use that drop along with Brinzolomide and Ganfort which contains Timolol and Brimprost, I used Brimonodine and Brinzolomide twice a day and Timolol and Brimprost once at bedtime and Haybak 4 times a day, I have not had any surgery or laser treatment and been using drops for 11 years now, I have been told or advise that I need surgery or laser treatment either, I have had one cataract removed from my right eye and I am waiting to have my other removed from my left eye this year before May and I also have other health problems. I also have blepharitis. I don't have any red lumps appearing under my eyes. Best wishes to you.
