Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution 10 ml

Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution is used to lower high pressure inside the eye. The detailed uses of Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution are as follows:

• Open-angle glaucoma: Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution helps lower the elevated fluid pressure inside the eye, preventing progressive damage to the optic nerve and preserving your peripheral and central vision.
• Ocular hypertension: For individuals with high pressure in the eye who do not yet show signs of optic nerve damage, Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution effectively reduces this pressure to prevent the onset of glaucoma.

Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution helps manage elevated intraocular pressure by combining two active ingredients that work through different mechanisms to reduce pressure inside the eye. By maintaining healthy eye pressure levels, this medicine supports long-term eye health and helps protect vision. It offers several key benefits:

• Supports Long-Term Vision Protection: By effectively lowering and controlling intraocular pressure, Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution helps reduce the risk of optic nerve damage associated with conditions such as glaucoma. This can help preserve vision and slow the progression of vision loss.
• Provides Enhanced Pressure Control: The combination of two pressure-lowering agents offers a dual-action approach to managing eye pressure. This may provide more effective pressure control than using a single medication alone in appropriate patients.
• Simplifies Daily Treatment: By combining two medicines into a single eye-drop formulation, Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution can make treatment routines more convenient. This may help improve adherence to therapy and reduce the need for multiple separate eye-drop applications.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to apply your eye drops safely and effectively:

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling the bottle.
• Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid with your finger to create a small pocket.
• Hold the dropper tip down close to your eye, without letting it touch your eye, eyelid, or any other surface to avoid contamination.
• Squeeze the bottle gently to release a single drop into the pocket of your lower eyelid.
• Close your eye gently and press your finger against the inner corner of your eye (near the nose) for about 1 to 2 minutes. This keeps the medicine in your eye and prevents it from draining into the rest of your body.
• If you need to use other eye drops, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes before applying them.

Always follow your doctor's exact instructions regarding how many drops to use and how often to apply them daily.

• Maintain a healthy diet rich in leafy greens, berries, and omega-3 fatty acids, which contain antioxidants that support overall optic nerve health.
• Engage in regular, moderate aerobic exercise like walking, which can help lower intraocular pressure. Avoid strenuous activities that involve prolonged head-down positions, as these can increase eye pressure.
• Limit your daily intake of caffeine, as large amounts of coffee or caffeinated beverages can temporarily raise your eye pressure.
• Drink fluids in small amounts throughout the day instead of consuming large quantities of water all at once, which can cause a temporary spike in eye pressure.
• Wear protective sunglasses outdoors to protect your eyes from UV rays and wind, especially since these drops can sometimes make your eyes more sensitive to light.

• Remove contact lenses before applying Vidinorm Ophthalmic Solution. Wait at least 15 minutes after putting the drops in before reinserting your lenses, as preservatives in the eye drops can discolour soft contacts.
• Always inspect the solution inside the bottle before use; do not use the eye drops if the liquid is cloudy, discoloured, or contains floating particles.
• Avoid touching the dropper tip to your eye, fingers, or any other surface, as this can easily introduce harmful bacteria into the bottle and cause serious eye infections.
• Do not drive or operate machinery immediately after applying the drops, as your vision may be temporarily blurred or you may feel slightly drowsy.
• If you are undergoing any surgery, including dental procedures, inform your doctor or dentist that you are using this medication, as it can affect how your heart and blood pressure respond to anaesthesia.
