Travonim RT Eye Drop 3 ml

Your doctor may prescribe this medicine to treat several conditions, including:

• Open-angle glaucoma: Travonim RT Eye Drop 3 ml helps reduce the buildup of fluid pressure inside the eye, protecting the optic nerve from damage that can lead to blindness.
• Ocular hypertension: Travonim RT Eye Drop 3 ml lowers elevated pressure within the eye in people who have high pressure but do not yet show signs of nerve damage or vision loss.

Travonim RT Eye Drop 3 ml provides reliable, targeted relief that helps preserve your vision and maintain your quality of life. The key benefits include:

• Preserve long-term vision: By keeping your eye pressure within a safe, stable range, it stops the silent progression of glaucoma.
• Simple daily routine: Because it is designed to be used only once a day, it is easy to fit into your evening schedule.
• Direct, targeted treatment: Working directly within the eye means very little medicine enters the rest of your body, keeping general side effects to a minimum.

Always follow your doctor's exact instructions when using this medication. Do not use more drops than prescribed, as using it too frequently can actually make the medicine less effective. To apply the eye drops safely, follow these step-by-step instructions:

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
• Tilt your head back slightly and look up at the ceiling.
• Gently pull down your lower eyelid with your finger to create a small pocket.
• Hold the dropper bottle directly over your eye. Do not let the tip of the dropper touch your eye, eyelid, hands, or any other surface.
• Squeeze the bottle gently to release exactly one drop into the pocket.
• Close your eye slowly. Press your finger gently against the inner corner of your closed eye (near your nose) for 1 to 2 minutes. This keeps the medicine in your eye and prevents it from draining into your body.
• If you use drops in both eyes, repeat these steps for your other eye.

• Keep your eye exams: Attend all scheduled appointments with your eye care specialist to ensure the medicine is managing your eye pressure safely.
• Avoid head-down positions: Try to avoid activities or yoga poses that require your head to be lower than your heart, as this can temporarily raise eye pressure.
• Exercise moderately: Regular, low-impact exercise like walking or swimming can help lower eye pressure, but talk to your doctor before starting a new routine.
• Wear eye protection: Wear protective glasses or sunglasses to shield your eyes from injury, wind, dust, and bright sunlight.
• Manage caffeine intake: Limit how much coffee, energy drinks, or caffeinated tea you drink, as large amounts of caffeine can temporarily increase pressure in your eyes.

• Take out contact lenses first: Remove your contact lenses before applying the eye drops. Wait at least 15 minutes after using Travonim RT Eye Drop 3 ml before putting your lenses back in, as the preservative in the drops can stain soft contact lenses.
• Keep the dropper sterile: Never touch the tip of the bottle to your eye, fingers, or any surface to prevent bacteria from getting into the medicine.
• Check the liquid colour: Inspect the solution before use. It should be clear; do not use the drops if the liquid looks cloudy, discoloured, or has particles floating in it.
• Space out other eye drops: If you use other eye drop medications, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between using Travonim RT Eye Drop 3 ml and your other drops so they do not wash each other out.
• Watch for cosmetic changes: Be aware that these drops may slowly darken your eyelashes, make them grow thicker, or gradually darken the colour of your iris (the colored part of your eye). Iris colour changes are permanent and may continue gradually even after stopping treatment. These changes may not be noticeable for months or years.
