Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Sign Informed Consent.
  • 21 years of age or older.
  • Able to follow instructions and willing to attend required study visits.
  • Clinical diagnosis of ocular hypertension, primary open-angle, or pigment dispersion glaucoma in at least one eye (qualifying eye).
  • Intra-ocular pressure (IOP) considered to be safe in both eyes in such a way that should assure clinical stability of vision and the optic nerve throughout the trial.
  • Must have best corrected visual acuity of 6/60 (6/60 Snellen, 1.0 LogMAR) or better in each eye.
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria may apply.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of other primary or secondary glaucomas not listed in inclusion criterion.
  • Presence of corneal dystrophies.
  • Concurrent infectious/noninfectious conjunctivitis, keratitis or uveitis in either eye.
  • Intraocular conventional surgery or laser surgery in qualifying eye(s) less than three months prior to Visit 1.
  • Risk of visual field or visual acuity worsening as a consequence of participation in the trial, in the investigator's best judgment.
  • Women of childbearing potential not using reliable means of birth control.
  • Women who are pregnant or lactating.
  • Participation in any other investigational study within 30 days prior to Visit 1.
