LANAX EYE DROPS is a combination of Timolol and Travoprost which belongs to the group of medicines called Beta-blockers and Prostaglandin analogs respectively. LANAX EYE DROPS is indicated to decrease the elevated pressure in the eye among adult patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who are insufficiently responsive to topical beta blockers or prostaglandin analogues.
Ocular hypertension is an eye condition in which the pressure within the eye exceeds the normal range (above 16mmHg). Open-angle glaucoma is a chronic, progressive eye condition primarily caused due to elevated intraocular pressure (pressure in the eyes). It can lead to permanent loss of vision if not managed properly. Symptoms include intense eye pain or tenderness, blurred vision, eye redness or itching and headache.
Before using LANAX EYE DROPS, inform your doctor if you have any respiratory or heart disease. If you wear soft contact lenses, apply LANAX EYE DROPS at least 15 minutes before you wear your lens.
Do not use this medicine directly on your eyes while wearing your contact lenses in. If you are pregnant or trying to become pregnant, avoid direct exposure of LANAX EYE DROPS. If any of the medicine encounters with your skin, immediately wash it off with soap and water.
LANAX EYE DROPS is also not recommended for use in breastfeeding mothers, children and adolescents (aged below 18 years) due to lack of safety and effectiveness. LANAX EYE DROPS is considered safe for use in elderly patients (aged 65 years or above).
The most common side effects of using LANAX EYE DROPS are eye redness, pain, itching and eye dryness or discomfort.
It can also lead to a permanent change in the color of the iris or increase the length, thickness, color and/or number of your eyelashes. Contact your doctor if any of the side effects bothers you.
