9 PM Eye Drop – 2.5ml (0.005%)

9 PM Eye Drop 0.005% is a prescription ophthalmic medication used to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. It contains Latanoprost (0.005%), a prostaglandin analog that works by increasing the natural outflow of aqueous humor (fluid inside the eye), thereby reducing eye pressure.

By effectively lowering elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), 9 PM Eye Drop prevents optic nerve damage, reducing the risk of vision loss associated with glaucoma. Regular use helps maintain healthy vision in patients at risk of glaucoma-related complications.

Benefits

successfully lowers intraocular pressure, lowering the possibility of damage to the optic nerve. 
Long-lasting action – usually requires only once-daily application
Safe for long-term use under medical supervision
Well-tolerated with minimal systemic side effects

How It Works

Latanoprost, the active ingredient in 9 PM Eye Drops, is a prostaglandin F2-alpha analog that increases the drainage of fluid (aqueous humor) from the eye, thereby reducing intraocular pressure (IOP). This helps prevent further damage to the optic nerve, which is crucial for maintaining healthy vision in glaucoma patients.
