It cost me tons of money on the Co-Pays. Who knew an eye drop could cause cardiac problems?

I was prescribed Timolol to use along with Travatan Z.The results of my pressure tests are good but I have itchiness in my eyes before Iplace either my am or pm drop in my eyes. My eyes often feel very dry and I get headaches almost daily from this medication.
