What Experts Say

Travoprost is a prostaglandin analog that opens the eye's uveoscleral drainage pathway, letting fluid leave the eye more easily. This steadily lowers intraocular pressure, the main risk factor doctors target to protect the optic nerve in glaucoma. Most patients see effect within hours, with peak action in half a day.

Glaucoma is often called the silent thief of sight because vision loss happens gradually and many people in Pakistan are diagnosed late. Regular eye camps and awareness drives have improved detection, but affordability still decides whether patients continue therapy for years. Locally manufactured drops like this keep long-term treatment realistic for most households.

Doctors recommend applying this drop at night since it may temporarily blur vision and darken the iris or eyelid skin with long-term use. Regular eye pressure checks every few months help confirm the drop is working. Contact your doctor if eyelashes change or redness persists.
