For Glaucoma, Open Angle "I have Open Angle Glaucoma in both eyes. Alphagan P brought my pressure down in a short length of time. The pressure has stayed at accceptable levels for the past twelve years. I have not had any side affects."
For Glaucoma, Open Angle "Horrible, like all the rest I have tried. Same effects as others, intolerable burning, beet red eyes, itching, blurring, rapid heartbeat, swollen upper eyelids, pouches and discoloration below eyes, loss of hair and eyelashes,on and on. Embarrassing to appear in public. People assume I am either an old lush or smoking too much pot. Not to mention my bald spots. You need to update your responses, what occurred in 2016 may be different than 2022. I think we need to band together and fight the big pharmas. Many $ for eye drops that are toxic to your system? One prescription cost $500 for 2 month supply. I had to discard it. My skin burned like fire. I have gone through this list of drops and not one is safe to use. S.O.S. someone help us!!!!!!"
Frequently asked questions
For Glaucoma, Open Angle "I have been diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma this week. I've been on this medication for 3 days and have no side effects at all. I've had other drops (used for other issues, not glaucoma) that burned, and stung, but not this one. I'll have to wait a few weeks to see if it brought the pressure down when they check my pressure. Fingers crossed."
For Glaucoma, Open Angle "Very strong side effects to me. I got blurred vision, dizziness and fatigue to the extent that I cannot maintain my normal daily activities."
For Glaucoma, Open Angle "Became ineffective within six months and developed an allergic irritance with it."

For Glaucoma, Open Angle "Unfortunatily, the drug was not very effective for me. I experienced side effects, such as eye irritation, itchy eyes, minor swelling, and minor blistering. This medicine did not reduce my eye pressure."
