Glaucoma Medications

Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure, which can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. Medications are commonly prescribed to lower eye pressure, helping to manage the condition and preserve vision.

Generic Names of Medications for Glaucoma

Common generic medications for glaucoma include Timolol, Latanoprost, Brimonidine, Dorzolamide, and Pilocarpine. These medications work by either reducing the production of fluid in the eye or enhancing its drainage, thereby lowering intraocular pressure.
