Benefits of Raiki Eye Drop

In Treatment of Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, the health of which is vital for good vision. This damage is often caused by an abnormally high pressure in your eye. Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness for people over the age of 60 or older. Raiki 0.02% Eye Drop is used to reduce swelling and pressure inside the eye. This helps to prevent complications of glaucoma such as blindness and improves vision.

In Treatment of Ocular hypertension

Ocular hypertension is a condition where the pressure inside the eye is higher than normal eye pressure. This may occur due to an injury, certain diseases or as an adverse effect of certain medications. Raiki 0.02% Eye Drop reduces the fluid accumulation of the eye and facilitates draining of the fluid from the eyes. This helps treat ocular hypertension and prevents further damage or complications such as vision changes or even vision loss.

How Raiki Eye Drop works

Raiki 0.02% Eye Drop contains Netarsudil, a rho kinase inhibitor, which is believed to reduce the pressure inside the eyes called intraocular pressure (IOP), by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork route. Aqueous humor is a transparent water-like fluid in the eye that bathes and nourishes the lens and maintains pressure within the eye. This helps to treat glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
