Travoprost ophthalmic solution is a topical medication used for controlling the progression of glaucoma or ocular hypertension, by reducing intraocular pressure. It is a synthetic prostaglandin F 2α analogue that works by increasing the outflow of aqueous fluid from the eyes.
Travoprost is used to treat high pressure inside the eye due to glaucoma (open-angle type) or other eye diseases (f.eks., ocular hypertension). Lowering high pressure inside the eye can help prevent blindness. This medication works by regulating the flow of fluid within the eye to maintain a normal pressure.
