Glaucoma meds factsheet

February 10, 2020 Staff reporters

As a result of a 2019 survey to professionals, Glaucoma New Zealand (GNZ) has created a factsheet including information on all glaucoma drops to assist in glaucoma management with patients.

GNZ’s general manager Ana Lee said the sheet was developed at the request of specialists and is aimed at all eye specialists treating glaucoma, including optometrists.

“Glaucoma drops can change on a regular basis for a variety of reasons. Given the range of eye drop treatments available and the time constraints an eye specialist may have with a patient, this sheet enables quick and easy access to up-to-date topical medication options, as well as side effects to consider.”
