Can glaucoma eye drop cause sleeplessness? My mother is using awarene pf eye drop. The earlier eye drop latoprost caused eye redness after using for 5 months, so doctor suggested awarene pf. While the eye redness got cured post shifting to new eye drop, however she is complaining of sleeplessness since than. Request to please share your view on this.

No, sleeplessness is not a side effect of awarene pf. Check her bp. Any other problem or stress etc.

Most of the time there is drowsiness due to these medicines. Sleeplessness might be due to some other problem. Get her bp checked regularly as she is 50+.
