Posterior lip sclerectomies were performed in rabbits and cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) was applied by topical instillation or subconjunctival injection. In both groups, the mean intraocular pressure (IOP) of the treated...
Brimonidine tartrate of 0.5% was identified as the most effective and safe dose
for acute intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering. The efficacy of brimonidine
tartrate 0.2% in preventing IOP elevation after...
PURPOSE: To compare the efficacy and safety of latanoprost, bimatoprost, travoprost and timolol in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with primary open angle glaucoma.
METHODS: This was a prospective study...
To increase the success rate of intraocular pressure control in recalcitrant glaucoma, anterior chamber tube shunt to a surgical membrane (ACTSSM) surgery using silicone tube and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE) can...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of a bimatoprost/timolol fixed combination (BTFC) and a latanoprost/timolol fixed combination (LTFC) on diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) and anterior ocular parameters in healthy subjects.
METHODS: We...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of a monocular drug trial in eyes with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG).
METHODS: This prospective study enrolled 74 patients with NTG. The monocular drug trial was started...
