Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop

Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop is a prescription ophthalmic solution containing bimatoprost 0.01% in each 3 mL bottle. It belongs to the prostaglandin analog class and is used to lower high pressure inside the eye. Lowering eye pressure helps treat open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension, which can help reduce the risk of optic nerve damage and vision loss. This exact Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop strength is designed for regular daily use as directed by a doctor.

How it works: Bimatoprost helps the eye drain fluid more easily, which lowers the pressure inside the eye. This eye drop works locally on the eye to reduce intraocular pressure over time.

Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop is the lower-strength sibling of Lumigan 3 mL (0.03%) Eye Drop. The 0.01% strength may be chosen when a doctor wants a gentler bimatoprost option with similar pressure-lowering benefit and potentially better tolerability for some people. Because the bottle is 3 mL, it is the same compact eye-drop form, but the strength is lower than the 0.03% version and is not meant to be swapped without medical advice.

• Open-angle glaucoma
• Ocular hypertension
• Lowering elevated eye pressure
• Long-term eye-pressure control as prescribed

• Use Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop exactly as your eye doctor prescribed.
• Wash your hands before using the eye drop and avoid touching the dropper tip to your eye, eyelid, or any surface.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• If you use other eye medicines, separate them by at least 5 minutes unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Remove contact lenses before using Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them.
• Use it at the same time each day, commonly in the evening if that is how your doctor directed.

Each bottle of Lumigan 3 mL (0.01%) Eye Drop contains 3 mL of bimatoprost 0.01% solution. For many adults, the usual schedule is 1 drop in the affected eye(s) once daily, but your doctor decides the exact dose and which eye(s) to treat. Do not use it more than once per day unless your prescriber specifically instructs you to do so.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

• Contact lens wearers should remove lenses before use because the preservative may be absorbed by soft lenses.
