Good Morning, Registered for the forthcoming webinar I would like to ask a question.

I have acute glaucoma having lost much of the vision in my left eye. I am an asthmatic recently having a chest infection I use ventolin as a reliever and formoterol twice daily. My Doctor recommended I change formoterol for Duaklir or Spiolto inhalers, is this advisable for glaucoma sufferers please?

Good afternoon Nonswimmer, I will put the question to our consultant, but I would also suggest contacting our helpline on helpline@glaucoma.uk or 01233 648 170 who will be able to answer this question for you also.

Kind regards,

Conchita
