IOP lowering efficacy and safety of Azopt plus Travatan
Brief summary
To evaluate the IOP (Intraocular Pressure) lowering efficacy and safety of Brinzolamide 1.0% (Azopt), dosed twice daily as adjunctive therapy in patients treated with Travoprost 0.004% (Travatan) once daily. The study is double masked. The patients will receive either treatment for 12 weeks.
Interventions
Travoprost 0.004% (once daily) + Brinzolamide 1.0% (twice daily)
Travoprost 0.004% (once daily) + Tears Naturale (twice daily)
