Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients who meet all of the following criteria are included in this study. 1. One prostaglandin-related drug did not provide sufficient reduction in intraocular pressure, and after December 2017, at the discretion of the attending physician, additional glaucoma treatment with ripasudil hydrochloride was required or will be performed Glaucoma patients in the future. 2. Intraocular pressure of both eyes are 15mmHg or lower at their consent and week 0, and difference of intraocular pressure at their consent and at the latest consultation before the consent is 2mmHg or lower. 3. Male and female patients aged 20 years or older and younger than 75 years when giving their consent. 4. Patients who can give their consent in a written form

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients who fall into any of the following criteria are excluded from participating in the study. 1. Patients with a contraindicated condition to use the study drug 2. Patients who are breastfeeding, pregnant, or parturient 3. Patients whose best-corrected visual acuity is less than 0.5 4. Patients whose spherical equivalent is less than -0.9D or +0.9 or higher 5.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame

Achievement rate of -20% or -30% intraocular pressure reduction in the study eye at the same time of week 12 from baseline (week 0) 3. Difference of intraocular pressure reduction between the study eye and non-treated eye at the same time of week 12 from baseline (week 0) 4. Difference of intraocular pressure reduction between the study eye and non-treated eye at the same time of week 4 from baseline (week 0) 5. Change of indexes listed below at the study eye at the same time of week 12 from baseline (week 0) 6.
