要約 目的:ラタノプロスト単剤点眼をタフルプロスト点眼に切替えたときの眼圧下降効果の報告。対象と方法:ラタノプロストを単剤として両眼に3か月以上点眼中の広義原発開放隅角緑内障患者62例を対象とした。片眼のみをタフルプロスト点眼に変更し,以後3か月間の眼圧,角膜所見,涙膜,結膜充血を比較し,使用感を調査した。結果:試験開始前の眼圧は両群ともに14.9±2.5mmHgであった。以後1か月ごとの平均眼圧は両群で基準値と有意差がなく,他の眼所見にも差がなかった。ラタノプロストに比し,タフルプロストは冷蔵が不要であり,点眼瓶の使用感がよく,9%がラタノプロスト点眼の継続を希望し,31%がタフルプロストを希望した。結論:広義の原発開放隅角緑内障に対し,タフルプロスト点眼はラタノプロスト点眼と同等の眼圧下降効果があり,使用感の評価が高かった。
Abstract. Purpose:To report the outcome of switching from latanoprost to tafluprost monotherapy for primary open-angle glaucoma(POAG). Cases and Method:This prospective study was made on 62 patients who were receiving topical latanoprost for POAG for 3 months or longer. Randomly selected one eye started receiving tafluprost with the other eye remaining with latanoprost. Intraocular pressure(IOP),corneal and subjective findings were evaluated every month up to 3 months. Results:Initial IOP averaged 14.9±2.5 mmHg in both groups. There was no significant change regarding IOP,corneal and subjective findings up to 3 months. Compared with latanoprost,tafluprost was generally preferred as it could be stored in room temperature and as the container was more easy to use. Out of 62 patients,9% preferred staying with latanoprost and 31% preferred tafluprost. Conclusion:Switching from topical latanoprost to tafluprost showed similar hypotensive effect and better subjective feeling in patients with POAG.
