Brief Summary

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

Hypertension, particularly if poorly controlled, appears related to an increased risk of open angle glaucoma, (the high tension type of glaucoma is characterized as optic nerve degeneration with ocular hypertension). so this study will search response of glaucoma to breathing exercise

Detailed Description

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

Hypertension, particularly if poorly controlled, appears related to an increased risk of open angle glaucoma, (the high tension type of glaucoma is characterized as optic nerve degeneration with ocular hypertension). With a random assignment, sixty hypertensive geriatric with high tension type primary open angle glaucoma will be assigned to breathing exercise (alternate nostril breathing) group (n=30 geriatrics) or waiting list geriatrics. the daily breathing exercise will be performed by the geriatrics in evening (for half an hour) and morning (for half an hour).
