Benefits of Timotic Eye Drop

Treatment of Ocular hypertension
Ocular hypertension is a condition where the pressure inside the eye is higher than normal eye pressure due to fluid build-up. Timotic Eye Drop increases the flow of fluid from inside the eye into the bloodstream thereby lowering the increased eye pressure. This prevents further damage or complications such as change in vision or even loss of vision. You should only use Timotic Eye Drop in the affected eye and take it regularly as prescribed by your doctor.

Treatment of Glaucoma
Glaucoma is an eye disease that damages the optic nerve which is essential for proper vision. This damage is often caused by an abnormally high pressure in the eye. Timotic Eye Drop is used to reduce swelling and pressure inside the eye. This helps prevent complications of glaucoma such as blindness and improves the vision. This medicine may be used alone or with other eye drops. Glaucoma cannot be prevented. Frequent monitoring, regular checkups can help detect the disease in its early stages.

Side effects of Timotic Eye Drop

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

Quick tips

Timotic Eye Drop helps lower high pressure in the eye and reduces the risk of vision loss.
To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.
After applying Timotic Eye Drop, close your eyes, and place one finger at the corner of your eye. Apply gentle pressure for 1 to 2 minutes before opening your eyes. This will prevent the medication from draining out.
Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution.
Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.

Frequently asked questions

What is the right way to use Timotic Eye Drop?

Always wash your hands before (and after) using Timotic Eye Drop. This prevents you from passing the infection from one eye to the other. Remove the cap just before using your medicine and replace it as soon as you have finished. Avoid touching the nozzle of the bottle with your fingers. Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid with a clean finger. Hold the bottle over the eye and allow a single drop to fall into the space between your lower lid and your eye. Close your eye and gently press your finger over the inside corner of your eye (over the eyelid) for about a minute. This helps prevent the drop from draining out of the eye. Repeat in your other eye if your doctor has told you to do this.

How many times should I use Timotic Eye Drop in a day?

Ideally, you should use one drop in each eye, two times a day or as prescribed by your doctor. If the eye pressure is maintained at satisfactory levels, the dosage schedule may be changed to one drop once a day in the affected eye(s). Do not change the dosage without consulting your doctor.

Does Timotic Eye Drop cause blurred vision?

When you instill the eye drops for the first time, it can make your eyes watery and may sometimes cause blurred vision. If this happens, it will quickly clear. Make sure you can see clearly again before you drive, or use tools or machines.

I am experiencing headaches after the start of the treatment with Timotic Eye Drop. Is this normal?

Although rare, headache is one of the side effects of Timotic Eye Drop. You may ask your doctor to recommend a suitable painkiller. If the headache continues, speak with your doctor.

When should I seek a doctor’s advice?

You should contact your doctor immediately if you develop swelling in the eyelids, eye pain, dry eye(s), foreign body sensation in the eyes, headache, and discharge from the eyes. Also, inform your doctor if you had or have any scheduled eye surgery.

Can I use Timotic Eye Drop if I wear contact lenses?

If you usually wear contact lenses, do not wear them while you're using Timotic Eye Drop. You can re-insert the lens 15 minutes after using Timotic Eye Drop. Contact your doctor if there is any eye irritation that persists.

Can I use any other eye drop along with Timotic Eye Drop?

In which conditions the use of Timotic Eye Drop should be avoided?
