Latoprost Rt Bkc Free Eye Drops 2.5ml

Latoprost RT Eye Drops are used for:

• Reducing elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma

• Managing high intraocular pressure associated with ocular hypertension

To use Latoprost RT Eye Drops correctly, follow these steps:

• Ensure your hands are clean before handling the eye drops.

• Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.

• Hold the dropper above the eye and squeeze out one drop.

• Close your eyes for 2 or 3 minutes with your head tipped down, without blinking or squinting. Gently press your finger to the inside corner of the eye for about 1 minute, to keep the liquid from draining into your tear duct.

• If you are using other eye drops as well, wait at least 5 minutes before putting them on.

Latoprost RT Eye Drops are instilled topically.

Latoprost RT Eye Drops consist of two active ingredients:

• Latanoprost (50 mcg): Belonging to the prostaglandin F2α analogue class, latanoprost works by mimicking the effect of naturally occurring prostaglandins in your eyes. It mainly increases the outflow of aqueous humour through the uveoscleral pathway. Aqueous humour is a clear fluid that fills the space between your cornea and lens in your eye. By facilitating its drainage, latanoprost effectively lowers intraocular pressure.

• Potassium Sorbate (4.70 mg): This ingredient acts as a preservative in this medication ensuring its stability and long shelf life.

  Both these ingredients work together in Latoprost RT Eye Drops to manage increased intraocular pressure effectively.

• Store Latoprost RT Eye Drops at a temperature below 25°C.

• Protect from light and excessive heat.

• Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• Maintain a balanced diet rich in antioxidants, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein, to help manage glaucoma or ocular hypertension. These can potentially improve eye health.

• Regular exercise, such as walking or jogging, can help lower intraocular pressure, which is beneficial when managing open-angle glaucoma. Just be sure to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
