  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We used topical latanoprost in 21 eyes of 11 patients of primary open-angle glaucoma. They had been us-ing multiple topical medications before. Ten eyes had been treated by two medications. After switching to latanoprost only, the intraocular pressure (IOP) averaged 20.2±1.4mmHg before and 17.5±4.9mmHg after switching. The dif-ference was significant (p=0.04). Eleven eyes had been treated by three medications. After switching to latanoprost and beta-blocker, the IOP averaged 17.2±2.8mmHg before and 17.2±4.0mmHg after switching. There was no sig-nificant difference. The findings show that reduction in the number of topical medications by latanoprost may result in good IOP control contributing to improved compliance.
