[/color]Careprost: An Eyelashes Serum[/size]
[/color]Careprost is an FDA-approved and dermatologically tested ophthalmic serum that contains 0.03% w/v bimatoprost and is a prescribed treatment for eyelash growth. It is found to be effective in increasing the length and thickness of the eyelashes as well as making them darker. Bimatoprost belongs to the drug class of prostaglandin analog that serves two purposes: treating glaucoma and hypotrichosis of eyelashes.[/size]
[/color]Initially, careprost was not formulated for eyelash growth. It was just used for treating ocular hypertension in glaucoma patients by reducing intraocular eye pressure. People who used careprost for treating glaucoma surprisingly noticed the growth of their eyelashes. This serves as the basis of the clinical trials. After so many clinical trials, careprost gets approval from the FDA to be used as a treatment for eyelash growth.[/size]
[/color]How Effective Is Careprost As An Eyelash Serum?[/size]
[/color]After using careprost as an eyelash serum, you will start noticing the desired results within two to three weeks. Though careprost is quite effective when it comes to longer, thicker and darker eyelashes, results will not appear in a night. You have to wait and be consistent for at least three to four weeks for getting the desired results.[/size]
[/color]One should apply careprost as directed consistently to achieve the desired growth of the eyelashes. Also, do not stop the use of the medicine once you get the desired growth of your eyelashes. Use it consistently even after achieving the desired results.[/size]
[/color]Though careprost is found to be safe for usage by most people, it is highly advisable to use it under the supervision of a dermatologist. [/size]

[/color]Careprost: An Effective Glaucoma Treatment[/size]
[/color]Careprost is a bimatoprost ophthalmic solution that effectively treats glaucoma by reducing the build-up pressure inside the eyes, thereby preventing your eyesight from further damage. It belongs to the drug class of prostaglandin analog which reduces ocular hypertension by initiating the outflow of the retained fluid inside the eyes.[/size]
[/color]How Careprost Treat Glaucoma?[/size]
[/color]Glaucoma is an eye condition that damages the optic nerve of your eyes thus leading to vision loss or permanent blindness. [/size]
[/color]Your eyes constantly secrete aqueous humor, a fluid that fills the front part of your eyes and keeps it nourished. This fluid usually leaves the eyes through the drainage meshwork present between the iris and cornea of the eyes. When these channels get blocked due to the deposition of some tiny particles, the fluid can't flush out the eyes as it used to and get retained inside the eyes. The retained fluid increases the pressure inside the eyes, known as intraocular pressure.[/size]
[/color]The build-up of intraocular pressure damages the optic nerve of the eye which is responsible for your vision. Any damage to the optic nerve may lead to blurred vision or if persists result in permanent blindness. Glaucoma can't be reversed, and you can't get back your damaged sight, but with the help of careprost and other effective medications, you can slow down its progression and prevent your sight from further getting damaged.[/size]
[/color]Careprost stimulates the outflow of the retained aqueous humor from inside the eyes. This, in turn, reduces the increased eye pressure and thus saves your eyesight. [/size]
[/color]How To Use Careprost For Treating Glaucoma?[/size]
[/color]Firstly consult your doctor before using glaucoma and read the instructions carefully mentioned on the pack. Do not try to alter the dose of the medicine, take it as prescribed by the doctor. Usually, careprost is instilled in the affected eye once a day.[/size]

Wipe off the excess medicine with a clean cloth or soft tissue.[/size]
