Combigan®
Alphagan® and Timolol Concurrent
Arm Description
One drop of brimonidine tartrate/timolol combination ophthalmic solution (Combigan®) and one drop of brimonidine tartrate/timolol fixed combination vehicle administered to the affected eye(s) twice daily (morning and evening) for four weeks.
One drop of brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution (Alphagan®) and one drop of timolol ophthalmic solution administered to the affected eye(s) twice daily (morning and evening) for four weeks.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Change From Baseline in Mean Diurnal Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in the Study Eye at Week 4
Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured in the study eye at baseline and Week 4. IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement).
