 How does DuoTrav (Travoprost/Timolol) work?

Fluid is constantly being formed within the eye and then drained out. When the fluid doesn’t drain properly, it causes the pressure inside the eye to increase. Causing pain and discomfort. This medication works by reducing the amount of fluid the eye produces and increasing the flow of the fluid out of the eye.

Wash your hands before use. Remove the cap, avoid contamination keep the tip of the container away from contact or from any surface. Tilt your head back and look up towards the ceiling. With one finger pull your lower eye lid down to create a pouch. Apply one drop into the pouch, then gently apply pressure to the inner corner of the eye for about 30 seconds.  This will prevent the medication from dripping out. Once finished, wash your hands again to remove any of the remaining medication.
