Raiki Eye Drops 3 ml is an anti-glaucoma agent belonging to the class of medicines called rho kinase inhibitors indicated for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Glaucoma 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). 
 
Raiki Eye Drops 3 ml contains ‘netarsudil’, which works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humour; this helps lower the increased pressure in the eye. Thereby, Raiki Eye Drops 3 ml helps treat glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
 
You are advised to use Raiki Eye Drops 3 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as blurred vision, instillation site pain, and redness of the eye. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Raiki Eye Drops 3 ml is an anti-glaucoma agent belonging to the class of medicines called rho kinase inhibitors indicated for lowering intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Raiki Eye Drops 3 ml works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humour, thereby helps lower the increased pressure in the eye.

• Include fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
• Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption.
• Avoid intake of baked foods such as cakes, cookies, doughnuts or fried items such as french fries and stick margarine as these foods may worsen glaucoma and damage the optic nerve.
• Cut down your coffee intake as it may increase pressure in the eye. Replace coffee with green tea.
• Avoid exercises such as any position where the head is lower than the body, like an inverted yoga pose, as it may increase pressure in the eye. Doing selective exercises is advised for glaucoma patients.

Glaucoma: It 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 for 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: It is a condition caused due to poor drainage of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow). This leads to a 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.
