What is Careprost used for?

Careprost eye drops 0.03% (also known as Lumigan and Latisse in the US) is an ophthalmic solution used to lower pressure within the eye, known as intraocular pressure (IOP) in the treatment of glaucoma, which is raised IOP caused by a buildup of fluid (aqueous humor) in the eye. Increased IOP can cause damage to the optic nerve fibres that lead out of the back of the eye to the brain and may cause gradual loss of sight, starting with peripheral vision and eventually to total blindness in that eye. Careprost 0.03% (Bimatoprost Ophthalmic Solution) increases the drainage of aqueous fluid out of the eye which decreases IOP and prevents loss of sight.
What does Careprost contain?

Careprost eye drops contain the active ingredient bimatoprost 0.03%). It also contains sodium phosphate dibasic, sodium chloride, citric acid monohydrate, purified water and the preservative benzalkonium chloride; sodium hydroxide and/or hydrochloric acid may be added to adjust PH.

What are the side effects of Careprost?
