Summary

There is a lack of evidence on the impact of switching from a combined preserved anti-glaucoma regimen to a preservative-free (PF) one, while employing sufficiently robust OSD metrics. The investigators have therefore carried out a single center, prospective, crossover investigation to compare the 6-month effect of switching well controlled open-angle glaucoma patients with at least moderate glaucoma therapy-related ocular surface disease from preserved to triple preservative-free therapy with and without cyclosporine 0.1% dosed in the evening.
