What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Worse Eye Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Each Hour Evaluated at Week 12

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was evaluated at Baseline and Week 12 at Hour 0, Hour 2 and Hour 8 in the worse eye, defined as the eye with the worse (higher) IOP at baseline. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement).

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  2. Average Eye Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Each Hour Evaluated at Week 2

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye IOP is the average IOP of both eyes and was evaluated at Week 2 at Hour 0, Hour 2 and Hour 8.

    Time frame: Week 2

  3. Average Eye Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Each Hour Evaluated at Week 6

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye IOP is the average IOP of both eyes and was evaluated at Week 6 at Hour 0, Hour 2 and Hour 8.

    Time frame: Week 6

  4. Average Eye Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Each Hour Evaluated at Week 12

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye IOP is the average IOP of both eyes and was evaluated at Week 12 at Hour 0, Hour 2 and Hour 8.

    Time frame: Week 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Worse Eye IOP at Each Hour Evaluated at Week 12

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was evaluated at Baseline and Week 12 at Hour 0, Hour 2 and Hour 8 in the worse eye, defined as the eye with the worse (higher) IOP at baseline. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement).

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

  2. Change From Baseline in Average Eye IOP at Each Hour Evaluated at Week 12

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye IOP was evaluated at Baseline and Week 12 at Hour 0, Hour 2 and Hour 8. Average eye IOP is defined as the average of the IOP in both eyes. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement).
