Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3 ml

Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3 ml is used for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Glaucoma is a condition that causes damage to the optic nerve (necessary for optimal vision). Ocular hypertension is an increase in ocular pressure caused by inadequate aqueous humor outflow (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow).

Opacia Duo Eye Drops 3 ml contains Travoprost and Timolol. Travoprost increases the drainage of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye) from the eye and reduces increased eye pressure. Timolol works by decreasing the production of fluid in the eye.
