Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3ml

Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3ml are used for the following conditions:

• Management of open-angle glaucoma: This is a chronic eye condition where the eye's drainage angle remains open, but partially blocked, leading to increased intraocular pressure (IOP) and potential damage to the optic nerve.

• Regulation of ocular hypertension: This condition is characterised by elevated IOP without apparent damage to the optic nerve or vision loss.

Follow these instructions when using Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3ml:

• Clean your hands thoroughly before use.

• Gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a pocket.

• Hold the dropper close to your eye without touching it or any other surface.

• Carefully squeeze one drop into your eye.

• Keep your eye closed and press lightly against the inner corner for 1-2 minutes.

• Repeat this process if you need to apply it in both eyes.

• Securely cap the bottle after use. For further guidance, consult your doctor.

Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3ml is instilled into the eyes.

Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3ml comprises two active ingredients:

• Timolol (0.5%): This non-selective beta-blocker works in your eyes by blocking beta receptors in the ciliary body. This action results in reduced production of a fluid known as aqueous humour inside your eyes. By decreasing this fluid production, timolol helps lower the pressure within your eyes.

• Travoprost (0.004%): Travoprost is classified as a prostaglandin analog. It operates by increasing the outflow of aqueous humour from your eyes through a pathway called the uveoscleral pathway. With enhanced drainage of this fluid, travoprost aids in reducing the pressure inside your eyes.

• Keep Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3ml at room temperature below 25°C.

• Store it in a dark place to protect it from light.

• Ensure the bottle is tightly closed when not in use to avoid exposure to air and moisture.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Make sure to use this medicine before the expiration date printed on the packaging.

• You should engage in regular eye exercises, such as blinking and focusing, to promote overall eye health and help manage conditions like open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

• A diet rich in antioxidants, including fruits, vegetables, eggs, and fish, can benefit your eye health. Antioxidants may help prevent damage to your optic nerve caused by increased intraocular pressure.
