Eye drops for GlaucomaProstaglandin Analogues:This class of medications is highly efficient at reducing intraocular pressure by increasing uveoscleral outflow. Beta-blockers:This class of medications is also highly efficient at controlling intraocular pressure by reducing aqueous production. Alpha2-Agonists:This class of medications works efficiently as an adjunct therapy in controlling intraocular pressure by reducing aqueous production. Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors:This class of medications is also a highly efficient adjunct therapy in controlling intraocular pressure by reducing aqueous production. |
