Overview
Introduction of Iysetra Eye Drop
Iysetra Eye Drop is used in the treatment of ocular hypertension (pressure in the eye) and glaucoma. It helps to lower high pressure in the eye and reduces the risk of vision loss. This medicine may be used alone or in combination with another eye drop that reduces pressure in the eye.
Iysetra Eye Drop is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using the medication. Avoid touching the tip of the dropper to any surface as it may contaminate the eye drop. For best results, use it daily in the evening or at night.
Using Iysetra Eye Drop may cause burning sensation, itching, or temporary blurring of the eyes. If they persist or worsen, inform your doctor.
