Glaucoma UK publishes free booklet
A new step-by-step guide to help patients with eye drops
For many years, eye drops have been the most common treatment for people diagnosed with glaucoma. Yet we know that an alarmingly high number of people who are prescribed eye drops do not use them correctly, risking serious damage to their vision. In fact, eye drops are one of the top three reasons that people call the Glaucoma UK helpline.
That’s why they have created this new resource which gives simple, easy to understand advice on how to put in eye drops.
The guide, which was launched during World Glaucoma Week 2022 in March, features step-by-step diagrams and clear text instructions.
It also answers common questions glaucoma patients often have about the treatment, such as how to schedule in multiple drops and what to do if the drop misses your eye.
As a UK based charity, Glaucom UK are only able to send booklets and leaflets free of charge within the UK. If you have a particular request for an order outside of the UK contact: info@glaucoma.uk
We usually dispatch orders within 48 hours, but occasionally there may be delays that are outside our control, so please allow two weeks for delivery.
