Key points

  • Eye drops are the most common medicine treatment for glaucoma, per the National Eye Institute.
  • Glaucoma drops work by reducing fluid production in the eye or helping fluid drain away, depending on the medicine.
  • Monitoring matters because glaucoma treatment aims to slow optic nerve damage and vision loss, not reverse it.
  • This range also includes an eyelash-growth solution, an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory eye combination, and an oral tablet used for glaucoma among other conditions.

Glaucoma and ocular hypertension eye drops

Bimatoprost is the prostaglandin analogue in Bimat, and Xalatan contains latanoprost, another prostaglandin analogue. Timolol is the beta blocker in Cosopt, paired with dorzolamide, and in Combigan, paired with brimonidine; Alphagan contains brimonidine alone. Bimat, Xalatan, Cosopt, Combigan and Alphagan are all listed for open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Eyelash growth, ocular inflammation and other uses

Latisse Ophthalmic Solution also contains bimatoprost, but is listed for eyelash hypotrichosis rather than glaucoma. Tobradex combines tobramycin, an antibiotic, with dexamethasone, a steroid, for ocular inflammation. Diamox (acetazolamide) is an oral tablet listed for glaucoma, altitude sickness and oedema, unlike the other medicines here, which are eye drops.
