About betaxolol eye drops

में chronic open-angle glaucoma there is damage to the optic nerve at the back of your eye. It is usually caused by an increase in pressure within your eye. Betaxolol eye drops work by lowering the pressure in your eye. It is thought they do this by reducing the amount of fluid that you make that fills the front part of your eye (called aqueous humour). By reducing the amount of fluid produced, it reduces the pressure within your eye.

Before using betaxolol eye drops

Some medicines are not suitable for people with certain conditions, and sometimes a medicine can only be used if extra care is taken. For these reasons, before you start using the drops it is important that your doctor knows:

• If you have asthma or any other breathing problems.

• यदि आप गर्भवती हैं या स्तनपान करा रही हैं।.

• यदि आपको हृदय की समस्या है।.

• If you know you have a problem with the surface of your eye (the cornea), or if you have particularly dry eyes.

• If you have circulation problems or low blood pressure.

• If you are being treated for thyroid problems or diabetes.

• If you have a skin condition called psoriasis, or if you have a condition causing muscle weakness, called myasthenia gravis. The symptoms in these conditions could worsen.

• If you are taking any medicines. This includes any medicines you are taking which are available to buy without a prescription, as well as herbal and complementary medicines.

• If you have any allergies. It is particularly important that you tell your doctor if you have had a bad reaction to any eye drops.

How to use betaxolol eye drops

1. ड्रॉप्स का उपयोग करने से पहले अपने हाथ अच्छी तरह धोएं।.

2. Remove the cap (or twist off the tip of the unit if you are using a single-dose unit).

3. अपने सिर को थोड़ा पीछे की ओर झुकाएं और अपनी आंख की निचली पलक को बाहर की ओर खींचें ताकि एक जेब बन सके।.

4. बोतल (या एकल-खुराक इकाई) को उल्टा करके अपनी आँख के पास रखें। ऐसा करते समय अपनी आँख को छूने से बचें।.

5. अपने आंख में एक बूंद डालने के लिए पर्याप्त दबाव डालें। केवल तभी दूसरी बूंद का उपयोग करें जब पहली बूंद आपकी आंख में नहीं गई हो।.

6. अपनी आँख को एक या दो मिनट के लिए बंद करें, और अपनी नाक के उस हिस्से पर हल्के से दबाव डालें जहाँ आपकी आँख का कोना आपकी नाक से मिलता है। यह बूंद को बहने से रोकने में मदद करता है और इसे आपकी आँख में बनाए रखता है।.

7. Repeat the process in your other eye if you have been told to use the drops in both eyes. The contents of one single-dose unit are enough for both eyes.

8. Replace the cap (or if you are using a single-dose unit, throw it away).

• Before you start using the eye drops, read the manufacturer's printed information leaflet from the pack. It will give you more information about the eye drops and will provide you with a full list of the side-effects which you may experience from using them.

• Use one drop into the eye (or eyes) affected, twice a day. Remember to use the drops regularly - try not to miss any doses.

• If you do forget to use the drops, put them in as soon as you remember, but do not 'double up' to make up for any missed doses.

• Take care not to touch the tip of the dropper with your eye, fingers, or any other surface. This is to prevent the drops from becoming contaminated.

• If you are using any other eye drops, leave 5-10 minutes between applying each one. This is to prevent more liquid going into your eye than it can handle. Otherwise the drops will overflow from your eye and not have the intended effect.

• When first put in, eye drops can make your eyes water and may sometimes cause blurred vision. If this happens, it should quickly clear. Make sure you can see clearly again before you drive, or before you use tools or machines.

• Do not wear soft contact lenses if you are using eye drops from a bottle unless your doctor has advised that you can do so. This is because there is a preservative in bottles of eye drops which can affect some soft contact lenses. You may wear soft contact lenses if you are using the single-dose units, as there is no preservative in these drops (but remember to take out your lenses to apply the drops and wait for at least 15 minutes before putting your lenses back in).

• Keep your regular appointments with your eye clinic so that your progress can be checked.

• If you are having an operation or any dental treatment, remember to tell the person carrying out the treatment that you are using betaxolol eye drops. This is because the drops may interfere with some medicines used during surgery.
