Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline in IOP (9:00 AM) at Week 4, Week 8, and Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4, Week 8, Week 12
IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was assessed using Goldmann applanation tonometry and measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Data at 9:00 AM from Weeks 4, 8, and 12 were pooled. A more negative change indicates a greater amount of improvement. One eye (study eye) was subject to analysis.
Baseline (Day 0), Week 4, Week 8, Week 12
