Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To study the intraocular pressure lowering effect of 0.4% Ripasudil eye drops in patients with primary open angle glaucoma and ocular hypertensionTimepoint: Intraocular pressure is measured at baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the incidence of side effects with RipasudilTimepoint: By assessing the side effects at 1st month, 3rd month and 6th month;To assess the IOP lowering effect of Ripasudil as a monotherapy or as an additive agentTimepoint: By comparing IOP at presentation (baseline) and at 1st month, 3rd months, 6th months;To assess the requirement of additional lubricants to continue RipasudilTimepoint: By assessing the side effects at 1st month, 3rd month and 6th month;To assess the requirement of additional ocular hypotensive drug in those patients on Ripasudil therapyTimepoint: By comparing IOP at presentation (baseline) and at 1st month, 3rd months, 6th months
