Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Clinical diagnosis of ocular hypertension, exfoliative open-angle glaucoma, or pigment dispersion glaucoma in at least one eye (study eye).
* On a stable IOP (intra-ocular pressure) lowering regimen within 30 days of Screening Visit.
* IOP considered safe in both eyes in order to assure clinical stability of vision and optic nerve throughout the study period.
* Best corrected visual acuity of 6/60 (20/200 Snellen; 1.0 LogMAR) or better in each eye.
* IOP between 19 and 35 mmHG in at least one eye (which would be the study eye) while on brimonidine/timolol fixed combination therapy.

Exclusion Criteria

* Presence of other primary or secondary glaucoma.
* History of ocular herpes simplex.
* Any abnormality preventing reliable applanation tonometry.
* Corneal dystrophies.
* Concurrent infectious/noninfectious conjunctivitis, keratitis, or uveitis in either eye. Blepharitis or non-clinically significant conjunctival injection is allowed.
* Intraocular conventional surgery or laser surgery in study eye(s) less than three months prior to Screening Visit.
* Risk of visual field or visual acuity worsening as a consequence of participation in the study, in the opinion of the investigator.
* Progressive retinal or optic nerve disease from any cause.
* Use of systemic medications known to affect IOP which have not been on a stable course for 7 days prior to Screening Visit or an anticipated change in the dosage during the course of the study.
* Pregnant or lactating.
