Conditions

Glaucoma, Primary Open Angle, Ocular Hypertension

Brief summary

This is a study of bimatoprost 0.01% (LUMIGAN® 0.01%) in subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OH) who require further treatment for elevated intraocular pressure (IOP).

Interventions

One drop of bimatoprost 0.01% (Lumigan® 0.01%) in the affected eye(s) every evening for 12 weeks.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Severity of Ocular Hyperemia in the Study Eye on a 5-Point Scale12 WeeksHyperemia is the engorgement of the blood vessels (redness) of the eye. Hyperemia is graded in the study eye on a 5-point scale where 0=None (Normal), 0.5=Trace (Trace reddish pink with no more than slight perilimbal injection), 1=Mild (Mild flush reddish color), 2=Moderate (Bright red color), and 3=Severe (Deep, bright, diffuse redness). The numbers of patients in each severity grade are presented.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in the Study EyeBaseline, Week 12IOP is a measure of the fluid pressure inside the eye. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement) and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase in IOP (worsening).

Severity of Ocular Hyperemia in the Study Eye on a 5-Point Scale

Hyperemia is the engorgement of the blood vessels (redness) of the eye.
