Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • 18 years of age or older.
  • Clinical diagnosis of ocular hypertension, exfoliative open-angle glaucoma, or pigment dispersion glaucoma in at least one eye (study eye).
  • Be on a stable intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering regimen within 30 days of the Screening Visit.
  • IOP considered safe in both eyes in such a way that should assure clinical stability of vision and optic nerve throughout the study period.
  • Best corrected visual acuity of 6/60 (20/200 Snellen; 1.0 LogMAR) or better in each eye.
  • IOP between 19 and 35 mmHg in at least one eye (which would be the study eye) while on brimonidine/timolol fixed combination therapy.

  • Intraocular conventional surgery or laser surgery in study eye(s) less than three months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Risk of visual field or visual acuity worsening as a consequence of participation in the study, in the investigator's best judgment.
  • Progressive retinal or optic nerve disease from any cause.
  • Use of systemic medications known to affect IOP which have not been on a stable course for 7 days prior to the Screening Visit or an anticipated change in the dosage during the course of the study.
