DIURNAL INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE RE-DUCTION WITH LATANOPROST 0,005% COMPARED TO TIMOLOL MALEATE 0,5% AS MONOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH EXFOLIATION GLAUCOMA

Purpose: Comparison of the diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) efficacy and safety of timolol maleate given twice daily versus la?tanoprost given once every evening in patients with exfoliation glaucoma Design: This was a 3-month prospective, single-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel comparison performed in six hospitals in Greece. We investigated consecutive patients with exfoliation glaucoma, or ocular hypertension and exfoliation syndrome. Patients were randomized to ei-     

COMPARISON OF THE IOP -LOWERING EFFICACY OF BIMATOPROST 0.03% AND TRAVOPROST 0.004% IN PATIENTS WITH GLAUCOMA OR OCULAR HYPERTENSION

Purpose: To evaluate the IOP-lowering efficacy of bimatoprost and travoprost for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Methods: Randomized, double-masked, parallel-group clinical trial. After completing a washout from all glaucoma medications, patients (n =27) were randomized to bimatoprost or travoprost for 6 months. Visits were at baseline, week 1, and
