Description
Indications
Travoprost is prescribed to manage glaucoma, a condition characterized by elevated intraocular pressure that can result in gradual vision loss, as well as ocular hypertension, which involves increased eye pressure. Travoprost belongs to a group of drugs known as prostaglandin analogs. It works by reducing eye pressure through the enhancement of the drainage of natural eye fluids from the eye.
Uses and Dosage
Travoprost ophthalmic is available as a liquid solution for eye administration. Typically, it is applied to the affected eye(s) once daily, in the evening. To ensure consistent use, aim to apply travoprost at approximately the same time every day.
Follow your doctor’s directives precisely, refraining from using more or less medication or applying it more frequently than prescribed.
Travoprost effectively manages glaucoma and ocular hypertension, although it does not provide a cure for these conditions. Even if you are feeling well, continue using travoprost, and do not discontinue treatment without consulting your doctor.
To administer the eye drops, the following steps should be followed:
- Thoroughly wash hands with soap and water.
- Do not allow the dropper tip to touch the eye or any other surface, and ensure that it is kept clean.
- Tilt the head back and pull down the lower lid of the eye using the index finger to form a pocket.
- Hold the dropper as close to the eye as possible without making contact, and brace the remaining fingers against the face.
- Squeeze the dropper gently to instill a single drop in the pocket created by the lower eyelid while looking upwards.
- Remove the index finger from the lower eyelid and keep the eye closed for 2-3 minutes while tilting the head down.
- Apply gentle pressure to the tear duct using a finger.
- Use a tissue to wipe off any excess liquid from the face.
- Wash hands to remove any residual medication.
