Abstract Purpose:To present an interim report of multi-institutional study on the hypotensive effect, safety and compliance of 0.1% brimonidine ophthalmic solution(Aiphagan®).

Cases and Method:This prospective study included 4,663 eyes of 2,883 cases who received 0.1% brimonidine ophthalmic solution for glaucoma or ocular hypertension in 435 institutions. The series comprised 1,307 males and 1,576 females. The age averaged 68.2±13.3 years. Primary open-angle glaucoma was present in 1,239 cases, normal-tension glaucoma in 1,213, primary angle-closure glaucoma in 100, ocular hypertension in 122, secondary glaucoma in 163, and others in 46. Intraocular pressure was evaluated in 1,992 eyes that received treatment with brimonidine for 12 months or longer.

Results:Analysis by Kaplan-Meier method showed that 83.2±0.8% of patients continued treatment with brimonidine for 12 months. Adverse side effect was reported in 8.8% of cases, with allergic conjunctivitis as the most frequent. Intraocular pressure averaged 16.0±4.5 mmHg before initiation of treatment and 13.6±3.8 mmHg at the final observation. The difference was significant(p<0.0001, paired t-test).

Conclusion:Treatment with 0.1% brimonidine resulted in significant IOP reduction after 12 months or longer. Continuation rate of this treatment was calculated 83.2% at 12 months.
