Lumigan 0.03%  

Lumigan 0.03%   contains bimatoprost, an ocular medicine used to treat raised/increased eye pressure. Glaucoma is a condition that can result from it. Lumigan 0.03%   can be used alone or with additional medications. Glaucoma is an eye illness caused by damage to the optic nerve. This injured nerve causes an unnatural increase in ocular pressure.

Lumigan 0.03%   includes the prostaglandin analogue Bimatoprost. It is primarily used to treat excessive intraocular pressure. It works by boosting aqueous humor (fluid in the eye) production and lowering ocular pressure. As a result of the increased pressure, glaucoma might develop. If the pressure is too great, it can cause vision loss. Lumigan 0.03%   should only be used in the infected eye and should not come into touch with the healthy eye.

Lumigan 0.03%   are only to be used externally. To avoid infection, burst the seal and wash your hands before using it. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using Lumigan 0.03%  , and then replace them 15 minutes later. In some circumstances, you may feel eye irritation and conjunctival hyperemia (eye inflammation). The majority of these Lumigan 0.03%   adverse effects are transient, do not require medical treatment, and fade away with time. However, if the negative effects do not go away, consult your doctor.

Only use Lumigan 0.03%   if your doctor has prescribed it. Never encourage self-medication or propose that someone else take your medicines. Stopping Bimat Ocular Drops 3 ml abruptly can cause an increase in eye pressure. If you are allergic to sulphonamides or have severe kidney or liver illness, do not use Lumigan 0.03%  . If you have dry eyes or a cornea condition, consult your doctor before starting Lumigan 0.03%  . Furthermore, Lumigan 0.03%   does not cease abruptly, since this may cause serious negative effects. Without contacting your doctor, do not use Lumigan 0.03%   with any other eye medicine.
