Xalatan to treat Glaucoma--only one drop a day!

Glaucoma vision loss can occur when high eye pressure hurts your optic nerve. Early on, it has almost no symptoms. People may have glaucoma and not know it. The damage it causes can't be reversed, so it is important to have regular eye exams. This is especially true for those at risk for disease. Without treatment, it may in time lead to blindness.(Link)

XALATAN is the eyedrop doctors in the United States prescribe most for the treatment of high eye pressure/intraocular pressure (IOP) in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.* XALATAN (pronounced zal'-a-tan) is clinically proven to lower high eye pressure. It’s easy to use — just 1 drop a day in each affected eye.(Link)
