F M N Eye Drops contain Fluorometholone, a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and other related conditions of the eyes. Here's an overview of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Anti-Inflammatory Treatment Fluorometholone is a mild corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the eye. It is often prescribed for conditions like conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva), iritis (inflammation of the iris), and uveitis (inflammation of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye). Post-Surgical Inflammation It is commonly used to control inflammation and swelling after eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery or other procedures, to help reduce discomfort and promote healing. Allergic Eye Conditions Fluorometholone may be used for treating allergic reactions that cause eye redness, itching, and swelling, such as in seasonal allergic conjunctivitis or vernal keratoconjunctivitis. Eye Infections (with inflammation) In some cases, it may be used for eye infections that cause inflammation, although it's important to note that it should not be used for infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria unless combined with other appropriate treatments. 🔹 How It Works Fluorometholone is a steroid that works by suppressing the immune response in the eye. It inhibits the production of chemicals called prostaglandins, which are responsible for causing inflammation, swelling, and pain. By reducing inflammation, the drops help relieve symptoms like redness, swelling, and discomfort. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation, burning, or stinging upon application Blurred vision (usually temporary) Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) with prolonged use, which may lead to glaucoma or cataract formation Redness or dryness of the eyes Sensitivity to light (photophobia) Watering eyes 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1-2 drops are applied to the affected eye(s), 2 to 4 times a day, or as prescribed by your doctor. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Place 1 drop in the pocket, and then gently close your eye and blink a few times to spread the medication evenly across the eye. If using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between each. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Infections: Avoid using Fluorometholone if you have an active eye infection (especially viral or fungal), as corticosteroids can suppress the immune response and worsen infections. Eye Pressure: Fluorometholone can increase the intraocular pressure (IOP) over time, which may lead to glaucoma. It is important to monitor IOP regularly if used long-term. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as corticosteroids should be used cautiously in these situations. Prolonged Use: Long-term use of corticosteroid eye drops should be under close supervision of a healthcare provider, as it can lead to complications like cataracts or glaucoma.

Dorzopar Eye Drops containing Dorzolamide 2% are primarily used to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in individuals with glaucoma or ocular hypertension (high eye pressure). Here's a detailed breakdown of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Open-Angle Glaucoma Dorzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor that helps reduce the production of aqueous humor (the fluid inside the eye). By decreasing the amount of fluid produced, it lowers the intraocular pressure (IOP), which is important in treating open-angle glaucoma. Glaucoma is a condition where high eye pressure can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. Ocular Hypertension Dorzopar is also used for the treatment of ocular hypertension, a condition in which the eye pressure is elevated but glaucoma has not yet developed. Lowering eye pressure helps prevent the progression to glaucoma. 🔹 How It Works Dorzolamide works by inhibiting the carbonic anhydrase enzyme in the eye. This enzyme is involved in the production of aqueous humor. By blocking this enzyme, Dorzolamide reduces the amount of fluid produced inside the eye, which in turn lowers the eye pressure. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation, burning, or stinging upon application Blurred vision (temporary) Redness in the eyes or foreign body sensation Dry eyes or increased tear production Headaches or dizziness (in some cases) Taste disturbance (a bitter taste in the mouth) 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1 drop in each affected eye, twice daily (morning and evening), or as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Place one drop in the pocket without touching the dropper tip to your eye. Gently close your eye and blink a few times to help spread the medication. If using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between applications. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Kidney or Liver Problems: Since Dorzolamide is metabolized in the body, it should be used with caution in individuals with kidney or liver issues. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as the safety of Dorzolamide during pregnancy or while breastfeeding has not been fully established. Eye Infections: Be cautious if you have an eye infection, as Dorzolamide may not be suitable for some active infections. Systemic Effects: While Dorzolamide is generally applied locally to the eye, some systemic absorption may occur, leading to side effects like metabolic acidosis (rare). It should be used cautiously in patients with a history of diabetes, kidney disease, or respiratory problems.
