CompositionOPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML are used to lower elevated intraocular pressure, specifically in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. These eye drops belong to prostaglandin F2-alpha analogues, helping reduce eye pressure by enhancing fluid drainage from the eye. The preservative-free formulation is ideal for sensitive patients. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully, typically using one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML are used for the following:
Reducing elevated pressure inside the eye
Managing open-angle glaucoma
Treating ocular hypertension
Lowering intraocular pressure in adults
Providing alternative therapy for preservative-sensitive patients
Controlling eye pressure when first-line treatments fail
Supporting long-term eye pressure management
Improving uveoscleral outflow of eye fluid
Follow these instructions while using OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML:
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling the drops.
Tilt your head backwards and gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a pocket.
Hold the dropper above your eye without touching any surface with the tip.
Instill one drop into the affected eye(s) as directed by your doctor.
Close your eyes gently and press the inner corner of your eye for about one minute.
Blot any excess solution around the eye with a clean tissue.
Wait at least five minutes before using any other eye drops.
Store unopened drops in the refrigerator and opened bottles at room temperature.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML are instilled topically.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML may have the following common side effects:
Eye redness
Eye irritation
Foreign body sensation: This is a feeling that something is in your eye, even when nothing is actually there.
Increased iris pigmentation: This means your eye colour may become darker, especially if you have mixed-colour irises (like blue-brown).
Eyelash changes: Your eyelashes may grow longer, thicker, darker, or more numerous.
Periocular skin darkening: The skin around your eyes may become darker than the rest of your facial skin.
Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless and are resolved by discontinuing the use of OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.
Eye irritation: Consider using OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML in the evening before bedtime to reduce awareness of this sensation.
Foreign body sensation: Instilling the drops at night may help you sleep through this uncomfortable feeling.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML contains travoprost (0.004%), which works on the eye as follows:
Prostaglandin Receptor Binding: Travoprost binds to specific prostaglandin F (FP) receptors in the eye tissues, particularly in the ciliary muscle bundles.
Enhanced Uveoscleral Outflow: It increases the drainage of aqueous humour (fluid inside the eye) through the uveoscleral pathway, which is one of the main drainage routes for eye fluid.
Intraocular Pressure Reduction: By improving fluid drainage from the eye, travoprost effectively lowers the pressure inside the eye, which helps protect the optic nerve from damage.
Rapid Onset of Action: The medicine begins working within approximately two hours after instillation, with maximum pressure-lowering effect occurring between 12 to 24 hours.
Sustained Pressure Control: The pressure-lowering effect continues throughout the dosing interval, providing consistent control with once-daily administration.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Caution is advised while taking OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML if you are breastfeeding. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
Interactions between OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML and alcohol are rarely applicable, as this is a topical eye product with minimal systemic absorption.
Interactions between OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML and liver function are rarely applicable to this topical eye product. However, if you have any liver concerns, it's still advisable to mention these to your doctor.
Interactions between OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML and kidney function are rarely applicable to this topical eye product. However, if you have kidney problems, it's still good practice to inform your doctor.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML may cause temporary blurred vision immediately after you instill it. Avoid driving or operating machinery until your vision clears completely.
Do not use OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML if you have known hypersensitivity to travoprost or any components of the formulation. If you've had allergic reactions to other prostaglandin eye drops, discuss this with your doctor.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML are not approved for use in children under 16 years of age unless prescribed by a child's eye doctor.
Older patients can use OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML following the standard dosing recommendations. No specific age-related adjustments are typically needed, but regular eye check-ups are important to monitor response to the medicine.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML interacts with the following medicines:
Prostaglandin analogues: Other medications, such as latanoprost or bimatoprost, should not be used simultaneously, as they provide no additional benefit while potentially increasing side effects.
Eye medications: When using multiple eye drops (such as timolol or brimonidine), ensure a five-minute interval between instillations to prevent dilution and ensure proper absorption.
Eye ointments: Products like chloramphenicol eye ointment should be instilled last in sequence, as they create a barrier that affects drop penetration. If using eye ointments in addition to drops, always apply the ointment last, as it may prevent proper absorption of the eye drop medication.
OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML interacts with the following diseases:
Herpetic keratitis: The medicine may potentially reactivate dormant herpes infections in the eye, requiring caution in patients with a history of this condition.
Eye inflammation: Patients with active eye inflammation should use this medicine carefully, as it may worsen existing inflammation.
Closed-angle glaucoma: This medicine is specifically for open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension, not for closed-angle glaucoma.
The daily dose of OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML should be instilled as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage may change based on individual factors such as the severity of your eye condition and response to treatment. Always follow the prescribed dosage instructions carefully.
In case you happen to put a few extra drops of this medicine in your eye, do not panic. Rinse your eyes with clean water at room temperature. If any symptoms persist or worsen, inform your doctor.
If you forget to instill OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML as instructed, use it when you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and resume your regular schedule. Never increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.
Store unopened OPACIA EYE DROPS 3ML in a refrigerator.
After opening, keep at room temperature.
Protect from light and excessive heat; never freeze the medicine.
Keep out of reach and sight of children.
Discard the bottle 28 days after opening, even if the solution remains.
Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
If you have glaucoma or high eye pressure, maintain regular moderate exercise like walking, which may help reduce intraocular pressure (pressure inside your eyes).
Limit caffeine intake from coffee, tea, and energy drinks as some studies suggest excessive caffeine consumption may temporarily increase eye pressure.
