Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: 1. To determine the extent to which GANfort®can reduce IOP in patients presenting with significantly elevated IOP at the 10 am IOP measurement.. 2. To determine the diurnal IOP control achieved with GANfort® ;Secondary Objective: 1. Local and systemic side effect profile of medications 2. To determine the effectiveness of a uniocular drug trial in prediction of IOP lowering in the second treated eye with GANfort® when both the eyes require treatment(9, 10). ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is IOP lowering at 3 months | — |
