About this trial

This is an interventional trial for Glaucoma

Eligibility Criteria

30 Years - 80 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All Sexes

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age (30-80 years);
  • Baseline Intraocular pressure (IOP) (20-32 mmHg): average untreated Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP) for both eyes as determined from 2 to 4 visits within a 6-months period;
  • Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) (475-650 µm): average of 3 different measurements from both eyes during the same visit;
  • Pattern standard deviation (PSD) (0,50-3,00 dB) average of both eyes as stated on the most recent visual field index report
  • Vertical Cup/Disk ratio (0,00-0,80): average of both eyes
  • All these data were entered into a calculator specially designed for STAR (Scoring Tool for assessing risk) II parameter. The patients were divided into low-, moderate- and high risk groups according to the result given by the calculator.

Exclusion Criteria:

-other ocular pathologies than glaucoma
