Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.
