Dortas Eye Drop

Product Introduction
Dortas Eye Drop is an ophthalmic solution used to reduce elevated pressure inside the eye, a condition that may occur due to or lead to glaucoma. High intraocular pressure can harm the optic nerve, potentially resulting in vision loss. This medication works by decreasing the production of fluid within the eye, helping to maintain healthy eye pressure and protect vision.

Before first use, ensure that the bottle seal is intact. Wash your hands thoroughly and shake the bottle gently before applying the drops. If you wear contact lenses, remove them prior to use and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. Do not discontinue treatment without consulting your doctor, as stopping suddenly may cause a rise in eye pressure, which can harm your eyesight.

Some individuals may experience side effects such as mild stinging or burning in the eyes, blurred vision, eyelid irritation, or an unpleasant bitter taste in the mouth. Other less common effects include headaches, nausea, fatigue, or general eye discomfort. If your vision becomes blurry, avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until it clears.

This medication should not be used by individuals with severe kidney conditions or those allergic to sulfonamide-containing medicines. Inform your doctor if you have liver issues, dry eyes, or corneal problems before starting this treatment. Do not use other eye drops unless recommended by your healthcare provider.

Primary Use
Dortas Eye Drop is mainly prescribed to treat glaucoma, a condition where increased fluid pressure within the eye can damage the optic nerve. By reducing fluid production, this medicine helps lower intraocular pressure, slowing disease progression and preserving vision over time.

Possible Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and temporary, often improving as your body adapts to the medication. Consult your doctor if any symptoms persist or worsen.
Common effects may include

• Eye stinging or burning

Directions for Use
This product is for external use only. Use it strictly as directed by your doctor. Hold the dropper near your eye without letting it touch the surface, then gently squeeze to release a drop into the lower eyelid. Remove any excess liquid with a clean tissue.

Mechanism of Action
Dortas Eye Drop belongs to a class of medicines called carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. It lowers eye pressure by reducing the production of aqueous humor, the fluid within the eye.
