Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop

Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop is used for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Glaucoma is a condition that causes damage to the optic nerve (necessary for optimal vision). Ocular hypertension is an increase in ocular pressure caused by inadequate aqueous humor outflow (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow).

Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop contains Travoprost, a prostaglandin analogue that reduces elevated ocular pressure by enhancing the outflow of aqueous fluid.

The most common side effects of Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop include decreased visual acuity, eye discomfort, foreign body sensation, pain and pruritus (itching) in some situations. The majority of side effects do not require medical treatment and fade away with time. However, if the side effects persist, consult your doctor.

Instil Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop as advised by your doctor. It is advised not to use more than the prescribed amount of medicine. Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop is for ophthalmic use only. Do not ingest. Avoid touching the tip of the dropper to prevent contamination.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Travoprost or any ingredients present in the Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop. It is recommended not to take Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop if you are a pregnant or nursing mother without first consulting your doctor. If you are using more than one ophthalmic medicine, give each one (drug) at least a ten-minute gap.

Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop is used in the treatment of ocular hypertension, glaucoma. The detailed uses of Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop are as follows:

• Treatment of Glaucoma: Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop helps to treat glaucoma by lowering eye pressure, preventing gradual vision loss, and reducing the risk of optic nerve damage.
• Treatment of Ocular Hypertension: Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop effectively reduces elevated eye pressure by enhancing the outflow of natural eye fluids, thereby helping to prevent potential complications.

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.
• Lie down and tilt your head backwards. Pull your lower eyelid gently with your index finger to form a pocket. Instil the number of drops advised by the doctor into the pocket of the lower eyelid. Close your eyes for 1-2 minutes.
• Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop is for ophthalmic use only. Avoid touching the container tip to your eye or lids to prevent contamination.

• Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop is a well-known medication for open-angle glaucoma that effectively reduces excessive pressure by inhibiting prostaglandin action in the eye.
• Prostaglandin is a naturally occurring chemical that contributes to eye dryness.
• The intraocular pressure (the pressure built inside the eyeball) is naturally maintained by a normally flowing liquid known as aqueous humour.
• If this outflow of liquid gets blocked, then aqueous pressure starts putting more pressure within the eyeball. Excessive pressure must be managed; otherwise, it can damage the optic nerve and impair vision.
• Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop functions as a synthetic prostaglandin that works similarly to natural ones by increasing the drainage of aqueous humour inside the eyeball, resulting in a decrease in intraocular pressure.

• Do not use Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop if you are allergic to any of its ingredients.
• Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any other medication.
• It is advised not to drive or operate heavy machinery after using this medicine, as it may cause blurred vision and may affect your ability to drive.
• To prevent contamination, avoid touching the tip of the container to any surface. Replace the cap after use.
• Go for regular eye checkups that help the doctor know whether the medicine is working properly or not.
• Apply the Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop in the affected eye as directed by the doctor, and don't increase the dose or use it more often to get the results faster.
• Always remove the contact lenses before using Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop, as there is a preservative in Travoder 0.004% Eye Drop that can be absorbed by the contact lenses.
• It is better to wait for a minimum of 15 minutes after applying this drug before putting lenses back in.
• Do not rinse and use the dropper; instead, replace the dropper after every use.
