Question 1 of 5

A nurse at an ophthalmology clinic is providing teaching to a client who has open-angle glaucoma and a new prescription for timolol eye drops. Which of the following instructions should the nurse provide?

A. The medication is to be used for approximately 10 days followed by a gradual tapering off. B. The medication should be applied on a regular schedule for the rest of the client’s life. C. The medication will be used until the client’s intraocular pressure returns to normal. D. The medication is to be applied when the client is experiencing eye pain.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. Timolol eye drops are used to lower intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma. The client should use this medication on a regular schedule as prescribed to manage the condition long-term. Timolol is not a short-term medication, so choice A is incorrect.
Choice C is incorrect because glaucoma is a chronic condition that requires ongoing management.
Choice D is incorrect because eye pain is not an indication for using timolol.
