Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary end point(s): Tear osmolarity;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Two and four months after the start of treatment; Main Objective: General objective: To evaluate the changes produced, both clinically and biochemically and cytologically, by the topical treatment with PRGF on the ocular surface in patients with glaucoma chronically exposed to ocular hypotensive drugs. Main objective:To evaluate the changes in tear osmolarity produced after topical treatment with PRGF. ; Secondary Objective: -To evaluate conjunctival clinical and cytological changes produced after topical treatment with PRGF -To evaluate the clinical and biochemical changes of the lacrimal film produced after the topical treatment of PRGF -To evaluate changes in symptomatology perceived by the patient after topical treatment with PRGF and changes in their quality of life. -To evaluate the safety of topical treatment with PGRF in patients with Glaucoma under treatment with ocular hypotensive drugs.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): -Symptoms of ocular surface pathology: It will be evaluated through the validated Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI ©) questionnaire. - Clinical signs of ocular surface pathology: corneo-conjunctival staining using fluorescein and evaluating according to Oxford scale, Lacrimal Tear Time (BUT) under slit lamp and fluorescein staining, measurement of lacrimal production by Schirmer test. - Cytological parameters of the conjunctiva, including the classification of Nelson and evaluating the presence and density of goblet cells. - Biochemical parameters of the tear film: The presence of proinflammatory cytokines in the tear (IFN gamma, TNF alpha, TGF beta, IL-2, IL-6, IL-17, IL-8, IL-13) will be analyzed. -Quality of life related to Vision: Validated Questionnaire National Eye Institute Visual Functioning Questionnaire-25 (VQ-25). -Adverse events. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Two and four months after the start of treatment
