I do take Caverta 25 mg twice a week for erectile dysfunction and it works. Is Caverta 25mg is safe to use for Glaucoma patients.

Brief Answer:
Yes,Safe to use
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and understood your concern.
Studies have shown that Cavera (sildenafil) drug has no significant impact on intraocular pressure and even mean systemic blood pressure at therapeutic doses (100 mg a day).
Hence this drug can safely be used for treatment of erectile dysfunction in chronic open angle glaucoma patients.
Hope this answers your query
