Patient Concerns about Lacoma Products
Frequently asked questions about Lacoma Products
Frequently asked questions about Latanoprost
Q. Can I use contact lenses while using Lacoma Eye Drop?
Yes, you can use contact lenses while using Lacoma Eye Drop. However, remove your contact lenses before instilling Lacoma Eye Drop. You can re-insert the lenses 15 minutes after instilling Lacoma Eye Drop. Contact your doctor if eye irritation occurs and persists.
Q. Can Lacoma Eye Drop cause a change in eye color?
Yes, continued use of Lacoma Eye Drop may cause a change in the color of the iris, particularly brown pigmentation. This color change is more common in people who have mixed color eyes (blue-brown, grey-brown, yellow-brown or green-brown). The change may be more noticeable if it is used in only one eye. This change in color is likely to be permanent. Additionally, the eyelashes may also become denser and the color of the eyelids may darken. However, this is usually temporary and reverts to normal once the use of Lacoma Eye Drop is discontinued.
Q. Can I use other eye drops along with Lacoma Eye Drop?
If you have to use other eye drops, wait for at least 5 minutes before using them. You should inform your doctor about any other medicine which you are using since it may interfere with the working of Lacoma Eye Drop.
Q. How long do you keep your eyes shut after using Lacoma Eye Drop?
After using the eye drops you should close your eyes for at least 2-3 minutes so that the medicine does not run off and gets absorbed in the eye.
Q. Do you have to refrigerate Lacoma Eye Drop?
Yes, the unopened bottle needs to be refrigerated at 2° to 8°C (36° to 46°F). However, once the bottle is opened for use, it may be stored at room temperature up to 25°C (77°F) for not longer than 6 weeks.
Q. How long does it take for Lacoma Eye Drop to start working?
The pressure in the eyes starts decreasing after about 3-4 hours of using Lacoma Eye Drop and the maximum effect is reached after 8-12 hours.
Q. Can I use Lacoma Eye Drop in the morning?
It is recommended to use Lacoma Eye Drop in the evening for best results. Lacoma Eye Drop, when used in the evening for the first few days, showed significantly effective results in lowering the eye pressure. The effect of this medicine remains for about 24 hours after administration.
Q. When to seek doctor’s advice while using Lacoma Eye Drop?
You should contact your doctor immediately if you develop an eye infection, injury, conjunctivitis, or an eyelid reaction. Along with that, the doctor should be informed if you have undergone any eye surgery earlier. Use Lacoma Eye Drop as prescribed by the doctor.
