Filter by:since glaucoma is considered an optic neuropathy, new treatments for glaucoma are being continuously investigated, including neuroprotection. Previous studies implied that phenytoin, a potent anti-convulsive drug, has a neuroprotective role, and Na+ channels blockage was suggested as a possible mechanism. This study predicts that glaucoma patients taking Phenytoin will have a less advanced glaucoma as compared to patients not taking the drug. Glaucoma severity will be determined by visual acuity, visual fields, optic disc cupping and nerve fiber layer thickness
The purpose of this study is to evaluate adherence to DuoTrav® when reinforced by the use of the Travalert™ Dosing Aid.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of brimonidine Purite, dorzolamide, and brinzolamide in reducing intraocular pressure when added to prostaglandin analog therapy (bimatoprost, latanoprost, or travoprost) in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
Glaucoma is a group of diseases in which visual loss occurs because of damage to the optic nerve. Research has shown that certain genes may cause glaucoma in some cases. So far, research has only been able to find the genes responsible for glaucoma in a small percentage of people who have glaucoma. The purpose of this project is to study the genes in patients with and without glaucoma to find additional genes that may be responsible for causing glaucoma.
To investigate dose response, safety and efficacy of PF-03187207 in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of PF-04217329.
The Erlangen Glaucoma Registry is a clinical registry for cross sectional and longitudinal observation of patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG) or glaucoma suspect, founded in 1991. The primary aim is the evaluation of diagnostic and prognostic validity of morphometrical, sensory and hemodynamical diagnostic procedures. No therapeutic studies are performed.
The type of anti-inflammatory medication used post selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) may have an impact on the intra-ocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect of SLT. This study will evaluate the IOP lowering effect of SLT following the topical administration of one of the following: prednisolone 1%, ketorolac 0.5% or artificial tears.
The present study attempts to evaluate the potential beneficial effects of a flavonoid, the epigallocatechingallate, on retinal ganglion cell function, evaluated by pattern electroretinogram, in subjects with ocular hypertension or early glaucoma.
