This dual-action formula provides effective pressure reduction through complementary mechanisms.
Uses
T-Bet Eye Drop is primarily used to lower elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It’s particularly beneficial for patients who have not responded adequately to other single-agent treatments.
Benefits
- Provides dual mechanism for reducing intraocular pressure
- More effective IOP reduction compared to single-agent treatments
- Once-daily dosing for improved patient compliance
- May slow the progression of glaucoma
- Reduces the risk of vision loss associated with high IOP
- Convenient combination reduces the need for multiple eye drops
- May be more cost-effective than using separate medications
- Minimizes the total amount of preservatives used
How It Works
T-Bet Eye Drop works through two mechanisms:
- Travoprost, a prostaglandin analog, increases the outflow of aqueous humor from the eye.
- Timolol, a beta-blocker, reduces the production of aqueous humor. Together, these actions effectively lower intraocular pressure.
Dosage
Instill one drop of T-Bet into the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening. Do not exceed the prescribed dosage. If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include eye redness, itching, or discomfort. Less common side effects can include changes in eye color, eyelash changes, or blurred vision. If you experience severe eye pain, sudden vision changes, or signs of an allergic reaction, seek immediate medical attention.
Warning
T-Bet Eye Drop is for ophthalmic use only. Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface to prevent contamination. This medication may temporarily blur vision; avoid driving or operating machinery until your vision clears. Patients with certain respiratory conditions should use this medication with caution.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
The safety of T-Bet Eye Drop during pregnancy has not been established. It’s known that Timolol can pass into breast milk. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using this medication.
Interaction
- May interact with oral beta-blockers, affecting heart rate and blood pressure
- Potential interaction with calcium channel blockers
- Can interact with certain antidepressants, particularly MAOIs
- May affect blood sugar levels in diabetic patients
- Could interact with other eye medications if used concurrently
Important Information
Use T-Bet Eye Drop exactly as prescribed by your eye care professional. Regular eye examinations are crucial while using this medication to monitor its effectiveness and check for potential side effects. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. Continue using T-Bet Eye Drop even if your symptoms improve, as glaucoma is a chronic condition requiring ongoing management. If you experience any significant changes in vision or eye comfort, report these to your healthcare provider promptly.

How to Use T-Bet Eye Drop (Travoprost & Timolol)
- Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the eye drop.
- Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
- Hold the dropper above your eye, making sure not to touch your eye or eyelid with the dropper tip to avoid contamination.
- Instill 1 drop into the affected eye(s), ideally in the morning.
- Close your eyes for 1-2 minutes and press gently on the inner corner of the eye (near the nose) to prevent the solution from draining into your tear duct.
- Wipe away any excess liquid gently with a clean tissue.
- If you use more than one type of eye drop, wait at least 5 minutes between applying each type.
- Recap the bottle tightly after use and store it at room temperature, away from light and moisture.
Important Information
- Missed Dose: Apply the missed dose as soon as you remember unless it’s close to your next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.
- Do not use more than the prescribed amount, as applying the drops more frequently will not improve their effectiveness and may increase side effects.
- Potential side effects: Some common side effects may include temporary eye irritation, redness, or blurred vision. If you experience any severe reactions, such as persistent eye pain or vision changes, contact your healthcare provider.
- Consultation: Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any other medications, as Travoprost and Timolol may have interactions.
- Storage: Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use and out of reach of children.
