Timolol Maleate is a beta blocker and is used to treat high pressure in the eye caused by ocular hypertension (high pressure inside the eye) or open-angle glaucoma (the most common type of glaucoma).

Timolol Maleate is a beta blocker that lowers the amount of fluid in the eye. When there’s less fluid inside the eye, the eye pressure goes down.
