Because the vision loss occurs slowly, people often do not experience any symptoms and do not realize that their vision has declined. By the time the loss is noticed, it may be irreversible. Phospholine Iodide helps by reducing fluid pressure in the eye. "Phospholine Iodide is also used to treat secondary glaucoma (such as glaucoma following surgery to remove cataracts), for subacute or chronic angle-closure glaucoma after iridectomy (surgical removal of a portion of the iris) or when someone cannot have surgery or refuses it. The drug is also prescribed for children with accommodative esotropia ("cross-eye")." Echothiophate iodide ophthalmic (Phospholine Iodide) "Echothiophate iodide ophthalmic reduces pressure in the eye by increasing the amount of fluid that drains from the eye. Echothiophate iodide ophthalmic also causes the pupil to become smaller and reduces its response to light or dark conditions. "Echothiophate iodide ophthalmic is used to treat glaucoma by lowering the pressure inside the eye. Echothiophate iodide ophthalmic is also used to treat certain eye disorders involving eye accommodation (focusing)."
