Usage of Timolol is suitable for night time?
Hi all, There are some advices that Timolol is not effective at night time for reducing IOP. And as it has a side effect to lower blood pressure, it seems using this before sleeping may bring some risk to optic nerve (as low blood pressure with high IOP at night can lead to low perfusion pressure,

alpha agonist drops and narrow angles
I am taking Latanoprost and my doctor says the pressure is still a bit too high. I have tried Dorzolamide (problem with side effects) and Tiopex (didn't work) so the only remaining type is alpha agonist. So far this has not been prescribed. However I also have narrow angles (not bad enough for iridotomy

Does Mirtogenol Supplement work in Glaucoma?
Hi All My wife has had raised intra ocular pressure for some years now. And has been taking Latanoprost for some years. And this has succeeded in bringing the numbers down to Low. However, it has made her eyelids droopy and her eyes very itchy and uncomfortable. And once, her lower R eyelid inverted.

Dorzolamide affecting athletic performance?
hello, I started using Dorzolamide drops, 2x daily starting in March in addition to Latanaprost (since probably 10 years now). Not long after, I noticed a marked drop in athletic performance on the bicycle (via training logs) From what I can tell this is not a usual side-effect, and my Dr. had said as

Delayed eye appointment warning
Just wanted to post a cautionary message regarding eye appointments. Just before lockdown I was diagnosed with glaucoma, (this had caused some loss of peripheral vision ) and the beginnings of cataracts which was a shock coming only 2 months after GCA diagnosis. The consultant prescribed Latanoprost

Eye drop question
Hi just looking for a bit of advice really. My husband has been having Eylea injections for about a year now for crvo. The injections are working really good which is the positive but when he went for his last appointment they said they thought he now had glaucoma. Not sure if this is because of injections

CSR and Latanoprost for High Pressures

Another question for you lovely lot!!
When I first read the side effects of Prednisolone one of my many concerns was Glaucoma. I thought, how would I know if I had it. I made an appointment with an Optician (Feb 2017) and he did confirm that the pressures in both eyes were high. He referred me to the eye hospital. After lengthy tests

Update 18 weeks after 2nd ozurdex
Hi guys. Had my review today. Last review showed oedema completely gone but unfortunately it hasn't lasted and the oct shows oedema has returned. Consultant thinks my condition has become chronic. I'm getting another implant in about 5 weeks and staying on the timolol drops for the raised eye pressure

Update 5weeks after 2nd ozurdex implant
Hi guys, I've had great news. My oedema is completely gone! Best result in 2 1/2yrs. I know it's still early days but I'm allowing myself a week of euphoria!!! Next review in 3 months ( apparently there has to be a 5 mnth gap before next implant if I need it). It was good to to hear consultant say I

Update on 12 week post ozurdex implant.
Hi all, well yet again I'm bucking the odds. After a good result at wk 8 Oedema is now back, IOP is reduced though (after 2wks no timolol drops). Yes, it's expected to be the other way round! Surprisingly I was given the option to go back to inj or another implant. Wasn't expecting a choice and had to

Midweek update
I don't normally post midweek for those following my mtx updates. This is more about my Uveitis in general. I've been on Pred drops now for almost 6months. Minus a verification two week break in which my inflammation was great. I went in today for a two week checkup to see how my latest flare was doing
