Can Glaucoma eye drop cause sleeplessnes

2020-07-13 04:16:09
My mother was recently been asked to change the eye drop due to allergic reaction to old eye drop. She shifted from Latoprost to Awarene PF. Immediately post using new eye drop she reported of sleeplessness. She never reported insomnia in the past history. Could there be any link between the eye drop and its side effect on sleep?
