What are Dorzolamide Eye Drops for Dogs and Cats?
- Dorzolamide Eye Drops are a prescription ophthalmic solution used against glaucoma.
- Glaucoma causes pressure to build up in your pet’s eye -- Dorzolamide Eye Drops help reverse that process.
- Glaucoma is an eye disease that increases pressure in the eye, which can damage the structure of the eye and, over time, cause blindness.
- The disease is more common in dogs than cats and is usually genetic, but it can also be caused by trauma to the eye
Why do cats and dogs use Dorzolamide Eye Drops?
- Your veterinarian may prescribe Dorzolamide Eye Drops to treat glaucoma, an excess of pressure on the eye.
- Dorzolamide Eye Drops can be used to treat a diseased eye while protecting the healthy eye from the glaucoma.
What else should I know about Dorzolamide Eye Drops?
- Treats and prevents glaucoma in dogs and cats.
- Reduces risk of nerve damage and blindness.
- Dropper tip for easy dosing.
- Store the eye drops at room temperature, away from moisture and sunlight.
- There are approximately 20 drops per milliliter in an ophthalmic solution.
What problems could my dog or cat have with Dorzolamide Eye Drops?
- People with allergies to sulfa drugs or sulfonamides should handle Dorzolamide Eye Drops with care.
- Side effects may include burning, stinging, or irritation of the eyes, change in pupil size, dry eyes, runny nose, nausea, or vomiting.
- Humans report a bad taste in the mouth while using Dorzomalide.
- Do not use the eye drops if they change color, become cloudy, or if you see particles in the solution.
How do you use Dorzolamide Eye Drops?
- Use proper administation techniques to avoid contamination of the eye drops. Keep the cap on when not in use.
- Wait 5 minutes after applying the Dorzolamide/ Timolol Eye Drops before applying any other eye medications.
What is in Dorzolamide Eye Drops?
- Dorzolamide Hydrochloride (HCl) is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, which reduces the amount of liquid, also known as “aqueous humor,” produced in the eye. This lowers pressure in the eye.
Will I get what I see in the picture?

Great Value!
From Boston, MA, USAComments about Dorzolamide 2% Eye DropsI have been using this on my dog for the last 2 years because the vet prescribed it. So far, this is the best price I can find for this prescription and my dog has to use this for the rest of his life because of his issue with his eye because it is congenital with his type of dog (shih tzu) -
This medicine is easy to use.
From Georgia, USAComments about Dorzolamide 2% Eye DropsWe have been using this for 4 years, I believe. We have a Boston possibly developing glaucoma. So far this has kept the problem from developing.

Difference from this Dorzolamide to the other Dorzolamide on the website??
-
The active ingredients in both of these products differ. The Dorzolamide Eye Drops contain dorzolamide hydrochloride only, whereas the Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops contain dorzolamide hydrochloride and timolol maleate.

Someone recently told me that if used for a prolonged period of time (years), this product will cause the eyeball to shrink back into the eye socket, is this indeed true or not??
-
Shelby, Dorzolamide is a product used to treat glaucoma or ocular hypertension. These conditions occur when there is an increased amount of pressure built up behind the eye due to excess aqueous humor fluid. In severe cases, the buildup of pressure behind the eye can cause the eye to bulge outwards. What this person told you is somewhat true. The medication reduces the pressure in the eye by inhibiting the production of the excess fluid. As a result, the eye can go back to its normal size or can make it shrink back into the eye socket. Dorzolamide will not cause the eye to shrink to a smaller size than the eye was originally. Thank you, VetRxDirect

My dog has become blind within the last months and has a grey film over his eye. What solution or eye drops would you recommend?

Dorzolamide Ophthalmic Soln 2% Can I substitute this for prednisolone acetate opthalmic for my shepard??
-
LisaH1, Prednisolone acetate is a anti-inflammatory steroid medication useful for eye irritation and inflammatory conditions diagnosed by your vet. Dorzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor that will reduce intraocular pressure and is beneficial in conditions such as glaucoma. The two different classes of drugs as well as differing mechanisms of action do not make them routinely interchangeable. Speak to your veterinarian for a recommendation if you are trying to find an appropriate substitute for prednisolone acetate. Thank you, VetRxDirect
