For Glaucoma, Open Angle "I really liked that this medication did not burn, itch, sting, etc. It did not feel like something was in my eye. My only concern was that some pale yellow gooey stuff would collect in the corners of my eyes. I couldn't feel it, but I needed a Q-tip to get it out. Other than that, it was perfect."

For Intraocular Hypertension "Swollen, itchy, and red lower eyelids. Crust has formed on upper and lower eyelids on the outside of the lids. Very tired all of the time. It did lower my eye pressures significantly. I use it twice each day."
