About This Medication

# Omlonti Patient Guide: How to Get Omlonti at Low or No Cost **Omlonti (omidenepag isopropyl ophthalmic solution 0.002%) is a prescription eye drop used to lower high eye pressure in adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.** This patient-friendly guide explains how to access financial help for Omlonti, including available programs, eligibility, and steps to apply. While Santen (the original manufacturer) or Visiox Pharma (current U.S. licensee) do not appear to offer a traditional patient assistance program (PAP) with income-based free medication, options like free trials, copay cards, and general aid exist. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist for the latest details, as programs evolve.[1][3][4][8] ## About Omlonti Omlonti is a **once-daily eye drop** approved by the FDA on September 22, 2022, for reducing elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.[3][6][8] It works as a selective EP2 receptor agonist, increasing fluid drainage through the eye's trabecular and uveoscleral pathways—a unique mechanism compared to other glaucoma drops.[3][6][10] Clinical trials showed it was non-inferior to standard treatments like timolol and latanoprost, with studies lasting up to 12 months.[3][6] **Key benefits:** Convenient once-daily dosing; preservative-free formulation in single-use kits.[1] Common side effects include eye redness, pain, or blurred vision—discuss with your eye doctor. Omlonti is supplied by Visiox Pharma in the U.S. since their 2023 licensing deal with Santen.[4][8] ## Who Qualifies for Assistance? No specific Santen or Visiox PAP with defined income limits was identified in current sources. However, glaucoma patients often qualify for broader aid if they meet general criteria like low income, lack of insurance, or high copays. The **OMLONTI Early Experience Program** offers free 3-month trial kits to eligible adults newly diagnosed or starting treatment—request via healthcare providers.[1] **General eligibility for glaucoma aid:** - Uninsured, underinsured, or Medicare patients with limited income. - U.S. residents (most programs). - Valid prescription for Omlonti. ## Income Eligibility Breakdown Without a dedicated Omlonti PAP, use these common benchmarks from similar eye medication programs (e.g., up to 400-500% Federal Poverty Level, or FPL). Check NeedyMeds or PAN Foundation for updates, as they list glaucoma aid.[5] | Household Size | Annual Income Limit (e.g., 400% FPL, 2026 est.) | Notes | |---------------|------------------------------------------------|-------| | Individual | ~$60,000 | Varies by program; some up to 500% FPL. | | Couple | ~$80,000 | Adjust for state FPL guidelines. | | Family of 3 | ~$100,000 | Medicare Extra Help: 150% FPL + $1,940 deduction. | | Family of 4 | ~$120,000 | Confirm with 1-800-MEDICARE. | *Table based on estimated 2026 FPL; actual thresholds differ. No Omlonti-specific limits found.*[5] ## Insurance Requirements Most aid requires proof of income and insurance status. **Medicare Part D patients** may qualify for Extra Help (low-income subsidy) covering premiums/copays—apply via SSA.gov or call 1-800-772-1213.[5] Commercial insurance? Look for copay savings cards on Omlonti.com or via Visiox (contact details may be on site).[1] Uninsured patients turn to NeedyMeds (1-800-503-6897) or PAN Foundation (1-866-316-7263).[5] **No insurance?** Free trials or discount cards like GoodRx (1-855-268-2822) can reduce costs up to 80%.[5] ## Step-by-Step Application Process 1. **Get a prescription:** Ask your ophthalmologist for Omlonti and discuss the Early Experience Program for free samples (12 kits per box, each a 3-month supply).[1] 2. **Check eligibility:** Use NeedyMeds.org or call Santen/Visiox (search omlonti.com for contacts; Santen USA: santen.com/us).[1][2] 3. **Gather documents:** Proof of income (tax returns, pay stubs), prescription, insurance card (if any), ID.[5] 4. **Apply online/phone:** Visit omlonti.com for savings options or general sites like PANFoundation.org. For trials, providers apply.[1][5] 5. **Submit & follow up:** Mail/fax/upload; track status via portal or phone. 6. **Receive medication:** Shipped to doctor/pharmacy or home. **Tip:** Start with your pharmacy—many handle copay assistance. ## Timeline and Delivery - **Free trial:** Provider-ordered; delivery to office (days to weeks).[1] - **General PAPs:** Processing 2-4 weeks; urgent cases faster.[5] - **Delivery:** Free shipping to pharmacy/home; refills auto-shipped if approved. Expect 10-30 days total. Call programs for expedited review if vision is at risk. ## Alternatives if Denied - **Discounts:** GoodRx, BlinkHealth (1-833-844-9621)—often $50-100/month vs. list price.[5] - **Other glaucoma aid:** ConnectiveRx (1-844-807-9706), Eagle Pharmacy (1-844-813-3864).[5] - **Switch meds:** Doctor may prescribe generics like latanoprost (covered by more PAPs). - **Reapply:** Fix issues (e.g., update income) and resubmit. - **State programs:** Check Medicaid or glaucoma foundations like BrightFocus.[5] ## Disclaimer This guide is for informational purposes only and based on publicly available data as of 2026.
