Suggest Treatment For Itching And Redness Around The Eyes

Hi Doctor, My Mother has Glaucoma in her right and also undergone a Retinal detachment surgery 9 months back and now she is using Combigan in the same eye for eye pressure control. Issue is she is now getting lot of etching and also we can see a visible redness al around the eye in lower and upper eye lids. We visited a doctor and they said she is allergic to one of the combination in combigan and so prescriber Glucomol instead of that. I am seeking an alternative advice for this. Can using Glocomol a good substitute? Can this new drop can effectively control ocular pressure? As the doctor said the redness is due to Combigan, can Combigan really lead to such side effects? Thanks Kaushik 0000
