Latanoprost is used to treat certain kinds of glaucoma. It is also used to treat a condition called hypertension of the eye. Latanoprost appears to work by increasing the outflow of fluid from the eye. This lowers the pressure in the eye.

I started with headaches, and feeling sickly went to the opticians and they referred me. I think she said one eye had pressure of 28 and one 26, has anyone else had that pressure?

I did not except my diganosis for glaucoma for a long time until it was when I had the surgey. I am grateful I had the surgey but now I am hoping that my pressures will now go down.
