Brivex is for reducing pressure in the eye. Assuming the surgery went well, 30% of patients have increase in pressure after cataract surgery, and around 20% have a low pressure after cataract surgery. If your father was already in Brivex, it is recommended to continue the drop on the day of Surgery too.

Review with the surgeon tomorrow.
