No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of our study is to determine the effect of prophylactic treatment with brimonidine/timolol fixed combination (Combigan®, Allergan; Dublin, IRL) or placebo therapy (Refresh tears®, Allergan; Dublin, IRL) on long-term IOP measurements in patients receiving serial intravitreal injection of 0.5 mg ranibizumab (0.05 mL) with six months follow-up. Intraocular pressure measurements will be correlated with changes on ancillary testing (Humphrey 24-2 visual field testing and optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the optic nerve head (ONH). Our study would be the first large, prospective, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial to examine the relationship between anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy and sustained ocular hypertension.
