Albrim T Eye Drop is a prescription combination of Timolol and Brimonidine designed to bring down elevated pressure inside the eye. It is used in the management of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. By reducing the amount of fluid produced within the eye, the drops help protect the optic nerve from pressure-related damage. Regular use as directed by an eye specialist supports steadier control of intraocular pressure and helps safeguard vision.
