About Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml

Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml belongs to a class of anti-glaucoma agents used to treat increased pressure in the eye in conditions such as glaucoma (damage of optic nerve) and ocular hypertension (high fluid pressure inside the eye). Glaucoma is an eye condition that causes damage to the optic nerve (essential for good vision) due to abnormally increased pressure in the eye. Ocular hypertension is increased pressure in the eye due to poor drainage of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow).

Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely Brinzolamide (carbonic anhydrase inhibitor) and Timolol (beta-blocker). Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml works by decreasing the secretion of aqueous humour (a liquid that maintains normal pressure in the eyeball) by the ciliary body into the eyeball and lowers the pressure in the eye by reducing aqueous humour entry into the eyeball.

Use Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml as advised by your doctor. Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml is only for use in eyes. Do not swallow or inject Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml. Your doctor will advise you how many drops to instil based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience redness, burning, itching, tearing or irritation in the eyes, blurred vision or eye pain. Most of these side effects of Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects worsen or persist, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml is not recommended for children below 18 years of age. You are advised to remove soft contact lenses before using Brio T Eye Drop 5 ml as it may cause discolouration of the soft contact lens.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Glaucoma is an eye condition that causes damage to the optic nerve (essential for good vision) due to abnormally increased pressure in the eye. If it is not treated in time, it may cause blindness. Usually, there are no symptoms of glaucoma initially except the slow loss of vision gradually. However, some symptoms include visible rainbow-coloured circles around bright lights or blurred vision. Rarely glaucoma can develop suddenly with intense pain in the eye, visual disturbance, or nausea. Ocular hypertension is a condition caused due to poor drainage of aqueous humor (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow). This leads to the build-up of excess fluid in the eye resulting in increased pressure inside the eye without any damage to the optic nerve. If ocular hypertension is not controlled, it may lead to glaucoma.
