For Intraocular Hypertension "This is an addendum to the review I wrote on 12/15/19: The feeling of fatigue and drowsiness after applying Simbrinza is consistent and may even have gotten a bit more intense. I also discovered that this drug drops my blood pressure by 20-30 points systolic and 5-10 points diastolic for about 2-3 hours after applying the drops. Not a big problem for me, as my 'normal' blood pressure is a little on the high side. If you normally have low blood pressure, be aware of this."

For Glaucoma, Open Angle "I take this for glaucoma. Effective at lessening ocular pressure. Makes me drowsy, so I take it at bedtime."
