Dortas-T Eye Drop

Product Description

Dortas-T Eye Drop is a prescription medication that combines two active ingredients, Dorzolamide and Timolol. It is primarily used to manage glaucoma and ocular hypertension. By reducing the production of fluid inside the eye (aqueous humor), this medicine helps to lower eye pressure, which can prevent damage to the optic nerve and protect vision.

This eye drop should be applied only to the affected eye, exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Before using, make sure to read the instructions on the packaging carefully and wash your hands thoroughly. It is important to avoid using more or less than the recommended dose.

Some people may experience mild side effects such as burning, stinging, or irritation at the site of application. Other possible effects include headaches, blurred vision, eyelid inflammation, nausea, sinus discomfort, or a general feeling of weakness. These effects are usually temporary, but if they persist or worsen, you should seek medical advice. If the medication accidentally comes into contact with your mouth, nose, or ears, rinse the area immediately with water.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of the ingredients or if you are taking other medicines. As this medicine can cause temporary blurring of vision, it is best to avoid driving or operating heavy machinery right after applying it.

Uses

• Helps in the treatment of glaucoma

• Manages ocular hypertension by lowering eye pressure

Benefits
Glaucoma is a condition that damages the optic nerve, often due to elevated eye pressure. Dortas-T Eye Drop helps reduce this pressure, protecting the optic nerve and lowering the risk of vision loss. It can be used alone or in combination with other eye drops. Although glaucoma cannot be cured, regular monitoring and early treatment can help control its progression.

Possible Side Effects

• Burning or stinging sensation

• Eye redness or itching

• Temporary blurred vision

• Headache

• Inflammation of the eyelids or sinuses

• Corneal surface changes

• Nausea

• Weakness or fatigue

How to Use
This medication is meant for external use only. Tilt your head back slightly, pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket, and gently squeeze the prescribed number of drops into the eye without letting the dropper touch your eye or skin. Wipe away any extra liquid around the eye.

How It Works
Dortas-T Eye Drop combines Dorzolamide, which blocks an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase to reduce fluid production, and Timolol, a beta-blocker that decreases the formation of aqueous humor. Together, they help lower the pressure inside the eye.
