What to Expect from VYZULTA
Where are you in your journey?
diagnosed: OPen-angle glaucoma
I have been diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma
Open-angle glaucoma is the most common form of glaucoma. Nearly 4 million people in the US are living with glaucoma, and many do not know they have it. Without early warning signs or symptoms, if left untreated, people with glaucoma slowly begin to lose their peripheral (side) vision.
- This condition occurs when the fluid in one or both of your eyes does not drain properly. This increases the pressure in your eye, which may damage the optic nerve
- Lowering the pressure in the eye reduces the risk of vision loss from glaucoma
- While there is no cure for glaucoma and no way to reverse vision loss, early detection and treatment can help preserve sight

Where do I start?
Start strong with VYZULTA and get to your target eye pressure.
diagnosed: ocular hypertension
I have been diagnosed with ocular hypertension
Ocular hypertension, the medical term used when the pressure in your eye is higher than normal, is caused by the fluid in the eye not draining properly. People with ocular hypertension may be at a higher risk for glaucoma, so it's important to keep eye pressure monitored carefully.
- There are usually no signs or symptoms
- Detected via routine testing by your eye doctor
- Lowering the pressure in your eye can reduce the risk of eventual vision loss from glaucoma

How do I get my eye pressure under control?
With VYZULTA, you can significantly lower eye pressure from the start, which could help preserve your vision.
exploring treatments
My current medication is not meeting my needs
I’m taking generic latanoprost 0.005% to lower my eye pressure.
I’m taking generic latanoprost 0.005% to lower my eye pressure.
- Generic latanoprost 0.005% is a common medicine used to lower eye pressure after you’ve first been diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension
- This medicine may work for many individuals, while others may need a different drop to lower eye pressure
- If latanoprost 0.005% hasn’t lowered your eye pressure enough, talk to your doctor about switching to VYZULTA, which may help reduce eye pressure better than latanoprost alone
I’ve been taking multiple drops, but I’m still not getting the results my doctor and I are looking for.
I’ve been taking multiple drops, but I’m still not getting the results my doctor and I are looking for.
- If you’re taking multiple drops, it may be difficult to keep up with all you need to remember. This is called “drop burden”
- If you’re experiencing drop burden, switching to one-drop VYZULTA may be the best option to get you to your target
WATCH
Is there another option?
If your current therapy is not delivering the results you need, VYZULTA may be a good one-drop treatment option for you.
I’ve had a selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) procedure, and my eye pressure is still not under control
- SLT is a laser procedure that can help treat glaucoma by lowering eye pressure
- You can expect to see results from 1 to 3 months after the procedure
- The laser is effective in lowering eye pressure in about 80% of patients
- Results can wear off over time, but the procedure can be repeated
WATCH
What can I do?
With time, the pressure-lowering results received from SLT may not last. Using VYZULTA may be the answer to help lower eye pressure.

VYZULTA is a once-daily eye drop that may help reduce eye pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It’s important to use VYZULTA every day as prescribed, administering 1 drop in your eye every evening.

What you can expect
The effect of glaucoma on vision depends on the severity of the disease
In early or mild glaucoma, there may be no vision problems at all; in severe glaucoma, there could be partial or complete loss of vision
-
Many people with glaucoma have good vision when they are tested on a vision chart, but often have difficulty seeing in dim lighting or distinguishing different shades of the same color
- Add additional light for specific tasks, like reading
- Increase contrast such as pouring dark coffee into a white cup or light-colored cereal into a dark bowl
- Control glare by having your loved one wear a cap with a brim or a visor when outside
- Have a designated place where you keep money, keys, and medications to make them easier to find
- Enlarge the text by ordering large-size checks from the bank, and large-print crossword puzzles and playing cards
- Listen to audio tapes and books on CD borrowed from your local library

INDICATION
VYZULTA® (latanoprostene bunod ophthalmic solution), 0.024%, is used to lower intraocular (eye) pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
- Brown color, or increased brown color, of the iris can occur, which may be permanent. Darkening of the eyelid skin may also occur, which is usually reversible after VYZULTA treatment is discontinued.
- Gradual changes to eyelashes may occur, including increased length, thickness, color, number of eyelashes and/or direction of eyelash growth. These changes may result in a difference in appearance of each eye. These changes are usually reversible after VYZULTA treatment is discontinued.
- Avoid touching the tip of the container to the eye or any other surface, including a finger, in order to avoid contamination of the solution by bacteria. Serious damage to the eye and possible loss of vision may result from using contaminated solutions.
- Tell your doctor immediately about any change in your eye, any eye condition that develops, any sudden change in your vision, any eye side effects, or if you have eye surgery.
- Remove contact lenses before putting VYZULTA in your eyes. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes later.
- If you are using other eye drops in addition to VYZULTA, wait 5 minutes between using each type of eye drop.
- The most common side effects seen in studies were eye redness, eye irritation, eye pain, and pain after putting the drops in your eye.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
