Abstract Backgroud: Latanoprost PF is claimed to minimally affect the ocular surface as it does not contain benzalkonium chloride. Currently available latanoprost PF contains 2.5 ml of 0.005% latanoprost per container that is not duly elastic.

Purpose: To evaluate latanoprost PF contained in a more elastic container.

Cases and Method: This prospective study was made on 72 outpatients who had been treated by latanoprost PF for 3 months or longer. The series comprised 13 males and 59 females. The age ranged from 29 to 87 years, average 67 years. There were normal-tension glaucoma 48 cases, primary open-angle glaucoma 14 cases and exfoliation glaucoma 5 cases among others. They were asked by questionnaire to report the subjective feeling after switching from the conventional to newly devised more elastic container for latanoprost PF.

Results: Sixty-two patients(86%)responded to the questionnaire. More than 75% of patients felt more ease in the use of newly devised container. Intraocular pressure(IOP)decreased significantly at the first visit after change of container and was the same at the second.

Conclusion: Switching to newly devised more elastic container of latanoprost PF was evaluated as more easy to use by the patients.
