Quality of diurnal intraocular pressure control in primary open-angle patients treated with latanoprost compared with surgically treated glaucoma patients: a prospective trial

Purpose: To compare the intraocular pressure (IOP) diurnal fluctuations of glaucoma patients treated with latanoprost 0.005% once a day with patients with controlled IOP after deep sclerectomy or trabeculectomy.Methods: The trial included 60 prospectively recruited subjects with primary open-angle g...
