She is unable to sleep for more than 2 weeks now. She never had such problem of sleeplessness in the past. We consulted few doctor who gave her clonazepam 0.5 mg for 4 days. Post which she is now taking charak sumenta. Lack of sleep noticed after she changed her eye drop for glaucoma. She was using latoprost and now on awarene pf. The medicine change recommended due to allergies to latoprost. We checked with the eye doctor and he said it's unlikely that the eye drop can cause sleeplessness. Please suggest if this could be worrying factor, as now it's almost more than 15 days and she is finding no relief.
