What is Optipres Eye Drops (Betaxolol) used for?

Optipres Eye Drops (Betaxolol) are used to reduce pressure in the eye in patients with glaucoma. Reducing intraocular pressure can help to reduce the risk of blindness and nerve damage in patients with glaucoma. This medication is in a class of drugs known as beta blockers, which work by reducing the production of liquid within the eye.

How should I use Optipres Eye Drops (Betaxolol)?

Optipres Eye Drops (Betaxolol) should be directly applied to the eye. Patients should consult their physician, so that they can have the correct dosage prescribed for them. After administering the eye drops, you should apply gentle pressure to the corner of the eye, on the inside of the nose, for 1 minute. This will help prevent the medication from dripping out.

What are the side effects of Optipres Eye Drops (Betaxolol)?

Optipres Eye Drops (Betaxolol) may cause some side effects in patients who use them, such as:

  • Dry eyes
  • Stinging of the eye after application
  • Crusting of the eyelashes
  • Insomnia
  • Spinning sensation

Although the above mentioned side effects are not severe, you should consult your physician immediately if they persist. Other more serious side effects requiring immediate medical attention include changes in vision, light sensitivity, swollen limbs, loss of hair, breathlessness, weight gain or fainting.
