Routine ophthalmic examinations and visual field tests were performed before and after treatment for each patient.Results: Mean IOP was 32.28 ± 0.92 mmHg before treatment. Mean IOP levels were 18.75 ± 0.68 for the first day, 17.96 ± 0.90 for the first week and 17.64 ± 0.66 for the first month after treatment.Conclusion: A fixed combination of latanoprost 0.005% and timolol 0.5% is effective in significantly reducing IOP in glaucoma patients with an IOP greater than 30 mmHg.Keywords: latanoprost, timolol, combination, glaucoma, intraocular pressure  Yelda Buyru ÖzkurtTomris SengorTufan EvcimanMelih HabogluGökçen BasSevda AydinDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2009, Iss default, Pp 337-339 (2009) |
