Brief Summary

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

The impact of targeted vitamin supplementation on retinal venous pressure (RVP) and steady state pattern ERG (SSpERG) in patients with RVP 15mmHg or more above intra-ocular pressure (IOP) and serum homocystein 12µmol/l or more, with signs of progression in spite of adequate IOP control, as evidenced by SSpERG abnormality with or without structural progression or visual field progression,

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Provided the inclusion criteria were met, RVP measurement was repeated, and a 1 capsule/day regimen of Ocufolin® forte was subsequently carried out for a duration of 3 months, after which repeat measurements of IOP, SSpERG, and RVP were performed, along with dilated fundoscopy. .

Exclusion Criteria
