patients with glaucoma

You may not qualify if:

  • Ametropia \> 3dpt
  • Inadequate transparency of ocular media as defined by physical examination
  • Iridocorneal angle extremely narrow with complete or partial closure as determined by gonioscopy
  • Any abnormality which in the physician's view would prevent reliable applanation tonometry or LDF of at least one eye
  • History of chronic or recurrent severe inflammatory eye disease such as scleritis or uveitis
  • History of ocular trauma or intraocular surgery within the past 6 months
  • History of infection or inflammation within the past 3 months
  • History of clinically significant or progressive retinal disease such as retinal degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or retinal detachment
  • Patients with a significant history and/or active alcohol or drug abuse (significant is defined as that which in the opinion of the investigator may either put the patient at risk because of participation in the study or may influence the results of the study or the patient's ability to participate in the study).
