cant find latanoprost or bimatroprost for closed-angle glaucoma, only for open-angle https://next.amboss.com/us/article/IO0YFT?q=glaucoma#Z0b65b1763162e05726a612f24b7ad762

This card isn’t right in the first place, regarding bimatoprost. Bimatoprost does not act on the prostaglandin F receptor (modulating the effect of PGF2α). Rather, bimatoprost is thought to act on the prostamide receptor (source Basic and Clinical Sciences Course, Book 2 Chapter 16 pp 393, from the American Academy of Ophthalmology)

These can take up to 6 weeks to work, which is why they aren’t typically used for closed angle

AMBOSS classifies bimatoprost as a prostaglandin, specifically prostamide, analog. Going to reject this submission as it’s wrong but you can submit another change to address issues with bimatoprost on this card elsewhere. May be better to just change answer to “prostaglandin”
