What is Latochek Eye Drop
Latochek Eye Drop is an effective Eye Drop for treating Ocular Hypertension and Glaucoma. It contains 0.005% Latanoprost, a Prostaglandin analog, a class of drugs that treats Glaucoma by lowering the liquid pressure within the eyes.

What are the benefits of Latochek Eye Drop
Latochek Eye Drops provide essential relief for patients with Ocular Hypertension and Glaucoma by lowering intraocular pressure, which helps protect your vision.
The active ingredient Latanoprost in Latochek Eye Drop works by increasing the natural outflow of Aqueous Humour (the fluid in your eye) into the bloodstream, which helps reduce the excessive pressure inside the eye. By controlling this pressure, Latochek Eye Drops stop further damage to the optic nerve.
