What are the indications for using Carpinol eye drops?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 20 years old and had a left-side vision power of -6.0 when I last checked in at the hospital. A few days later, when I went back home, my vision was poor and hazy, which caused me to seek a doctor.

He then explained that it was because I was overweight and prescribed Carpinol eye drops for two days, asking me to come back if the problem persisted.

Kindly help.

Thank you.
