Bimat Eye Drop is used to lower high eye pressure in adults with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Reducing this pressure helps prevent vision loss or blindness by improving fluid drainage from the eye into the bloodstream.
It can be used alone or with other eye medications and is suitable for both adults and children. Use it exactly as prescribed and consistently for best results. Do not stop without your doctor’s advice, as this may cause pressure to rise again. Avoid using a bottle if the seal is broken. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting.
Common side effects include eye redness and itching. Speak with your doctor if side effects bother you—they may adjust your treatment. Temporary blurred vision may occur, so avoid driving until your vision is clear.

Benefits of Bimat Ophthalmic Solution
In Ocular hypertension
Bimat Eye Drop belongs to a group of medicines called prostaglandin analogue. It is used to reduce pressure in your eyes. It increases the flow of fluid from inside the eye into the bloodstream thereby lowering the increased eye pressure. If the pressure in your eye is too high, it can damage your sight. Take it regularly as prescribed by your doctor. If you stop taking it, the pressure in your eye will not be controlled.
In Glaucoma
Bimat Eye Drop helps reduce pressure in your eyes (ocular hypertension) that can lead to an illness called glaucoma. It may be used alone or with other eye drops. Do not use it too often as that can make it less effective. You should only use it in the affected eye and take it regularly as prescribed by your doctor. If you stop taking it, the pressure in your eye will not be controlled. This could lead to a loss of sight.
