Tafluprost ophthalmic "I have been using Zioptan for a little over a year. I had developed allergies to the preservatives in my previous drops, and Zioptan has been a wonderful change. My pressures are normal, and the swelling, itching, and peeling of my eyelids and the skin around my eyes has totally cleared up."

Tafluprost ophthalmic "With Zioptan, my intraocular pressure fell, in one month, from R15 L14 to R12, L11. My ophthalmologist is delighted. He says that, if this result holds, I will be his third patient to experience a dramatic drop. He says that some people -- with hopes that I am one -- seem predisposed by heredity to an excellent response to Zioptan. No side effects."

Tafluprost ophthalmic "After trying five glaucoma meds to which I was allergic to all of them, I was ecstatic to find Zioptan. Not only did my pressures drop tremendously and stay there, but I finally had no side effects. There are no preservatives in Zioptan. The preservatives in most of the other meds gave me allergic reactions."

"I have used this Saflutan for 6 years now at night only. I use another eye drop in the daytime. I find if I am late in using either of my medication, I have headaches. I have no problems with this eye drop. So far, I did not want to change, but suddenly our drug companies here seem to have slowed down the importation. I have to switch this week to Zalatan. I will try one eye first as I want to be careful about side reactions."

Tafluprost ophthalmic "I had no side effects, but my pressure actually went up a few points. My eyelashes did not thicken, but they grew longer."
