Hylo Tear before eye drops
I take Timolol twice a day (10 am & 10pm). One day a week I need to be out by 9.15 and so take my Timolol early. As I do voluntary work on a local Nature Reserve it is not a very appropriate place to be taking the Hylo Tear. So I would like to administer the lubricant BEFORE the Timolol. While the instructions

Tissue Press Method for Instilling Eyedrops
Hello from Canada. While I am new here, I am not new to glaucoma. I’ve been taking drops for 10 years and have had two SLT surgeries. Covid delays have really slowed testing and seeing an opthamologist so I am really not sure about the progression of my glaucoma. I have to wait until April for a visual

Par Plana Vitrectomy Operation.
Hello I’m fairly new to this site and you all seem such a cohesive and friendly family. I was diagnosed with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma in July of this year following a couple of subconjunctival haemorrhages in my left eye. It’s stable now with Dorzolamide/Timolol eyedrops and I visit the Eye Clinic

Timolol side effects?
From the day I was diagnosed with glaucoma about two months ago my eyesight seems worse, with glare, blurriness and dry, gritty eyes. That was also the day I was switched from latanoprost to latanoprost/timolol. Can timolol cause all of the above? I had SLT three weeks ago and I am waiting for check-up

Trabeculectomy
Hi, Just had a field vision test showing more sight loss in 1 eye and increased pressure. I have been on latanoprost and timolol but consultant has now added brinzolomide but tells me if that does not help I need a trabulectomy. (Which he longer does as not now working for NHS) My concern is that

Allergic reaction to eye drops
Hi, I am a 66 years old male and have been on
Timolol
/
Bimatoprost
and Brinzolamide drops for glaucoma since July 2021. I've recently developed red, itchy, scaly patches on my arms and these seem to be a reaction to the drops as indicated in the leaflet on side effects.

Traumatic afternoon at eye clinic UPDATE
According to her I am not allergic to
Timolol
, only to the other ingredient -
Bimatoprost
. How they reached this conclusion, I have no idea. Any way looks like I have no option but to try the Dorzolamide/Timolol that hs been prescribed. Was told to try it for two weeks.

Traumatic afternoon at eye clinic!
Had an appointment yesterday afternoon at 1.45pm to check my eye pressures. Got there, only to be told that my appointment for some unknown reason had been cancelled!

How do I accept the news of some vision loss?
Am on
bimatoprost
&
timolol
combined. Pressures last month down from 30 & 35 to 16 &19 but consultant wants to reduce them further. How do I cope with the shock of losing some vision permanently & my delayed treatment? Would really value anyone’s advice thank you.

Hi all, I’m here on behalf of my partner.

Eyedrops & breastfeeding
Hello! I have a 3 week old baby and my consultant told me to completely come off my eyedrops so I can breastfeed, they now feel like I need to go on them again with funny pulling sensation and headaches. Has anyone every breastfed on medication? I'm taking timoptol 0.5% and brinzolomide. Thanks in advance

Emergency cataract operation
As I have bilateral pseudoexfoliation and my left eye pressure is now above 30, and risen on each recent visit my consultant decided today that the way forward is an emergency cataract operation. He explained that due to the pseudoexfoliation there are risks and therefore a senior surgeon would carry
