Brief Summary

Elevated IOP is a key risk factor for the progression of glaucoma. IOP is subjected to diurnal fluctuation in healthy individuals and higher fluctuation in POAG . So, once-daily antiglaucoma drugs must have consistent efficacy throughout the day. Prostaglandin analogues (PGAs) have become the first-line drops for medical treatment of glaucoma worldwide. In our study, we compare between the efficacy and tolerability of Latanoprost 0.005%, Travoprost 0.004% and Tafluprost 0.0015% on diurnal IOP fluctuation in patients having POAG, IOP fluctuation was assessed before treatment , then 2 weeks and 6 weeks after. A comparable and significant reduction in IOP fluctuation occurred in the 3 groups. Side effects were mild and tolerable.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To Compare Between the Efficacy of Latanoprost 0.005%, Travoprost 0.004% and Tafluprost 0.0015% on Diurnal Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation in Patients Having Primary Open-angle Glaucoma

    Newly diagnosed primary open-angle glaucoma patients received one of the 3 study medications and intraocular pressure fluctuation measured in mmHg by using Goldmann applanation tonometer was compared to the baseline intraocular pressure and to vompare its efficacy to the other 2 drugs

    3 months from starting the treatment

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To Compare Between the 3 drugs regarding their tolerability and assess their side effects.

    3 Months from starting the treatment
