Lumigan 0.01% eye drops contain Bimatoprost, used to lower intraocular pressure in glaucoma and ocular hypertension, and may promote longer, thicker eyelashes.
Lumigan 0.01% eye drops – Bottle of 3 ml Solution is a prescription ophthalmic solution containing bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analogue, designed to reduce elevated intraocular pressure in adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. High eye pressure can damage the optic nerve, potentially leading to vision loss or blindness if untreated. Lumigan 0.01% works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humour (the fluid inside the eye) through the trabecular meshwork and uveoscleral routes, effectively lowering eye pressure. Manufactured by Allergan, this sterile solution is applied as eye drops and is suitable for adults and children, either alone or with other eye medications. Its lower bimatoprost concentration (0.01%) compared to the 0.03% formulation reduces side effects while maintaining efficacy, making it a preferred choice for long-term glaucoma management.
Uses
- Treats open-angle glaucoma in adults.
- Manages ocular hypertension to prevent optic nerve damage.
