TAFLUPROST 0.0015% EYEDROPS
Tafluprost 0.0015% preservative-free ophthalmic solution will be given once a day at the evening,in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and/or ocular hypertension (OHT) at first diagnosis. IOP values after three months of treatment will be evaluated throughout the 24-hour by the means of Goldmann and Perkins applanation tonometry.
Goldmann and Perkins applanation tonometry
IOP values will be assessed by the means of Goldmann or Perkins applanation tonometry at the following time-points: 10AM (± 1 hour), 2PM (± 1 hour), 6PM (± 1 hour), 10PM (± 1 hour), 2AM (± 1 hour) and 6AM (± 1 hour) after three months of treatment
