For Glaucoma, Open Angle "I have had juvenile glaucoma for many years. I've been taking Rhopressa for several months, but at times I had to stop temporarily due to bad side effects, including swelling of the eyelid, blurred and distorted vision. When I went back to lumigan and my other medications, the pressure was more elevated than before starting Rhopressa. Due to the high pressure, I went back to Rhopressa. However, after a recent three-week period back on Rhopressa, the pressure is elevated again."

For Glaucoma, Open Angle "I wish there were more user reviews when I tried this drug many months ago. I had a bad experience using this drug. My eyelid margins became inflamed, eyes inflamed and red, gloss over eyes, and tearing and burning eyes. My vision was impaired, and my wife needed to do all the driving. My eyes were unsightly. Side effects continued for the duration of use. Doctor discontinued after 10 days and returned to a previously used medication with better pressure results."

For Glaucoma, Open Angle "It was awful! My eyes were red, then developed an allergy to the drops, eyes swollen and red. It took a month for the swelling to go away after I stopped the drops. I couldn't open my eyes in the morning! DO NOT try these drops. I ended up with steroid ointment for the outside of my eyes and antihistamine drops for the inside of the eye."

For Intraocular Hypertension "I was warned about the red stoner eyes that I'd have for about a month, but I didn't get that far. Within minutes after using the drops, I developed an allergic reaction - shortness of breath, cold tight feeling in my chest, nausea, eventually weakness. I was hospitalized for a day and a half. During that time, I used the drops a 2nd time, under medical observation, to see if that's what caused my symptoms. It was. It's been three days since the last use, and I'm just now starting to feel less weak. I'd be curious to know if others had an allergic reaction. Aside from that, my vision became cloudy, eye runny, and that is still happening. Also, eyes are still bloodshot and burning. The hospital refused to return the sample when I was discharged because it was too dangerous for me."
