Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension
How BIMAPIX 0.01% EYE DROPS Works
Bimatoprost is a prostaglandin (prostamide) analogue that increases the outflow of aqueous humour from the eye, mainly via the uveoscleral pathway. This lowers intraocular pressure and helps protect the optic nerve.
