Cosopt Eye Drops is a prescription medication used to reduce high pressure in the eyes, commonly caused by conditions like glaucoma or ocular hypertension. By combining two active ingredients—Dorzolamide Hydrochloride and Timolol Maleate—Cosopt lowers intraocular pressure by reducing the production of fluid within the eye.

  • Hold the dropper close to your eye without touching it to avoid contamination.
  • Squeeze the prescribed number of drops into the pocket.
  • Close your eye and press lightly on the inner corner (near the nose) for 1-2 minutes to prevent drainage.
  • Avoid blinking or rubbing your eyes immediately after application.
