Abstract. Purpose:To report patient satisfaction after switching to long-acting 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution. Cases and Method:This study was made on 36 eyes of 36 patients of glaucoma. The series comprised 25 males and 11 females. The age averaged 61.3±12.6 years. Primary open-angle glaucoma was present in 21 cases,secondary glaucoma in 8,normal-tension glaucoma in 6,and developmental glaucoma in one. After receiving 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution,treatment was switched to long-acting 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution. They were asked to respond by questionnaire regarding their satisfaction. Results:There was no difference in intraocular pressure after switching. Compliance increased from 72% to 89%. Fifty-nine per cent of patients hoped for further treatment with long-acting carteolol. Reduced frequency of instillation was mentioned as the reason by 90% of patients. Conclusion:Switching from conventional to long-acting 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution resulted in improved convenience and compliance in glaucoma patients.
