FAQ's on Optipres Eye Drop 5ml

How should you use Optipres?

Optipres should be used in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. Optipres eye drops are usually instilled once or twice a day at evenly spaced intervals, until the pressure in the eye is controlled (about 4 weeks). After that, it can be instilled once a day or as advised by the doctor. Follow the directions of your doctor carefully, and ask your doctor to explain any part you do not understand.

What does Optipres do?

Optipres reduces the pressure inside the eyes, known as intraocular pressure. This helps to reduce the risk of damage to the optic nerve responsible for normal vision. If the pressure in the eye is not controlled, it can gradually lead to blindness. Optipres effectively controls ocular hypertension and certain types of glaucoma by decreasing the pressure in the eyes.

Can I use Optipres with contact lenses?

No, you should remove your contact lenses before instilling Optipres. You can re-insert the lens 15 minutes after using Optipres. Contact your doctor if there is any eye irritation that persists.

When should I seek a doctor’s advice?

You should contact your doctor immediately if you develop an eye infection, conjunctivitis or an eyelid reaction. Also, you should inform the doctor if you have an eye injury or eye surgery. Discuss with your doctor if you have to continue using Optipres.

Can I stop Optipres if I am fine now?

No, you should not stop using Optipres without consulting your doctor. If you stop taking this medicine suddenly, the pressure in your eyes may not be controlled which may increase the risk of loss of sight.

What are the side effects of Optipres?

Optipres may cause side effects such as blurred vision and headache. Some other side effects of this medicine include watery eyes, redness of the eye, eye irritation, burning or discomfort. If any of these side effects bother you, please consult your doctor.
