It seems from the history that you are diagnosed with early stage if glaucoma and this requires treatment by anti glaucoma drugs.
The drugs you are using line refresh tears and central are artificial tears and they are used for treatment of dry eyes.
Hence kindly check for the diagnosis and for treatment with your doctor for correct diagnosis and correct treatment.


Thank you
