General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Based on the medications, your mother is suffering from open angle glaucoma. There are no such combination as whole. You may ask for Laser trabeculoplasty, if your mother is fit for surgery. You may go for second opinion with other doctor, if the doctor says 'no'.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pradeepraj, General & Family Physician
