Summary

To evaluate whether add-on to prostaglandin therapy with twice a day (bid) dorzolamide is statistically superior to twice a day (bid) timolol with regard to increasing ocular blood flow

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Color Doppler Imaging

Color Doppler imaging (CDI) system for measurements of blood flow in the ophthalmic (OA), central retinal (CRA), and nasal (NPCA) and temporal (TPCA) posterior ciliary arteries. In each vessel, peak systolic velocity (PSV) and end diastolic velocity (EDV) were determined, and Pourcelot's resistive index will be calculated (RI = (PSV-EDV)/PSV).
