What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Average Eye Mean Diurnal Intraocular Pressure (IOP)

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye mean diurnal IOP is the mean of the average eye IOPs (average IOP of the right and left eyes) at hours 0, 2, 4, 8 and 12. 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).

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 42

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Average Eye Mean Diurnal IOP

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye mean diurnal IOP is the mean of the average eye IOPs (average IOP of the right and left eyes) at hours 0, 2, 4, 8 and 12. 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).

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 14, Day 28

  2. Average Eye Mean Diurnal IOP

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Average eye mean diurnal IOP is the mean of the average eye IOPs (average IOP of the right and left eyes) at hours 0, 2, 4, 8 and 12.

    Time frame: Day 14, Day 28, Day 42
