MeasureTime frameDescription
Mean Elevated Intraocular Pressure (IOP) During Treatment55 daysMean elevated IOP during treatment. IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was recorded any time an elevation of IOP (increase of 5 mmHg or more) occurred while using study treatment. The median duration of treatment at the time of observed IOP elevation was 55 days.

Outcome results

Primary

Mean Elevated Intraocular Pressure (IOP) During Treatment

Mean elevated IOP during treatment. IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was recorded any time an elevation of IOP (increase of 5 mmHg or more) occurred while using study treatment. The median duration of treatment at the time of observed IOP elevation was 55 days.

Time frame: 55 days

Population: Intent to treat, which included all patients in the study.
