Bimat LS Eye Drops contain two active ingredients:

• Bimatoprost (0.01%): This synthetic prostamide analogue imitates the action of natural prostaglandins in your body. It works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor, fluid in your eyes, via two mechanisms. First, it relaxes the ciliary muscle and increases the space between ciliary muscle bundles, facilitating the drainage of aqueous humor through the uveoscleral route. Second, it enhances the flow of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork, the primary drainage pathway in the eye. By doing so, bimatoprost effectively reduces IOP.

• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.005%): This ingredient acts as a preservative in the eye drops, preventing microbial contamination. However, it's important to note that long-term use of products containing benzalkonium chloride may be associated with ocular surface toxicity.

• Store Bimat LS Eye Drops at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.

• Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use to avoid contamination.

• Shield the product from direct light to ensure its efficacy.

• Ensure it is kept out of reach and sight of children.

• Always check the expiry date on the packaging before use.

• Maintain good eye hygiene: Regularly clean your eyelids with a warm compress to remove debris and keep your eyes healthy, which can help manage glaucoma and ocular hypertension effectively.

• Adopt a balanced diet: Consuming foods rich in antioxidants, such as spinach, kale, and other leafy green vegetables, can contribute to good eye health. However, always consult your doctor before making any significant dietary changes.
