Side Effects
Side effects of Timolol Maleate 0.5% + Travoprost 0.004% Eye prep :
The most frequently reported treatment-related undesirable effect was ocular hyperaemia. Other common side-effects may be keratitis, anterior chamber flare, eye pain, photophobia, eye swelling, conjunctival haemorrhage, corneal staining, ocular discomfort, visual acuity reduced, visual disturbance, blurred vision etc.
Mode of Action
Exact mechanism of ocular hypotensive effect is unclear, but it is thought to be related to reduction of aqueous humour formation. beta-blockade also causes lowering of BP.
Travoprost, a prodrug and synthetic analogue of dinoprost (prostaglandin F2alpha), reduces intraocular pressure by increasing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humour.
