severe reaction to this medicine. Dr. decided to give this med to mom in law. Her pressure in her eyes were slightly elevated, but she was complaining of blurry vision and headaches without much cause or symptoms.

My husband has been on Travatan eye drops for glaucoma for nearly a year. For the last few months he has felt dazed and confused. Various tests have not shown anything that may be the cause and he has been told that the side effects of Travatan would not include his dazed symptoms. We think that the Travatan drops may be the cause as he has felt like this since starting the use of. Has anyone else experienced the same problem ? ## Hello, Butterfly! How are you and your husband? No, that is correct, it does not include such side effects. Is he on any other medications? Does he have any other medical conditions? The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including anxiety, eye irritation, eye dryness and seasonal allergy.
