How Lumigan Works

Lumigan acts by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor from the eye, which helps to reduce intraocular pressure. This mechanism is particularly beneficial for individuals diagnosed with glaucoma or ocular hypertension, as it helps prevent vision loss and optic nerve damage associated with high pressure inside the eye.


Usage and Dosage Instructions

Apply one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening, as advised by your doctor. It is crucial to avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface to maintain sterility. Only use Lumigan for ophthalmic (eye) application and follow your physician's specific directions for safe and effective treatment.


Precautions and Storage

Lumigan should be used strictly as prescribed. Do not use more than the recommended dose and avoid usage in children or those with known hypersensitivity to bimatoprost. Store the bottle below 25C; protect it from light and do not freeze. Discard any remaining solution one month after opening to ensure its efficacy and safety.
