Summary
Objectives:
The study will assess the ocular hypotensive effect of latanoprost and dorzolamide in a selected sample of patients affected by primary Pediatric Glaucoma (PG), refractory to surgical procedures. Safety will be assessed, too.In the first version of the protocol 96 eyes were forecasted to complete the enrolment. The protocol was then amended and now to complete the study 68 eyes should be included. This number of eyes could be achieved by recruiting from 34 to 68 patients due to not in all patients both eyes should be eligible for the study.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Children of either sexes, aged 0-12 years
- Diagnosis of mono- or bilateral primary congenital glaucoma
- IOP greater than or equal to 22 mmHg and lower than 27 mmHg
- Only one previous ocular hypotensive surgical procedure for treatment of glaucoma among the following: goniotomy, trabeculotomy, trabeculotomy with adjunct of mitomycin C) (only for medical treatment at least one month before)
- Parent informed consent to data processing (at registration)
- Parent informed consent before any study procedure
Exclusion Criteria
- Secondary glaucoma (Sturge-Weber syndrome, type I neurofibromatosis, retinoblastoma, steroid-induced glaucoma, etc.)
- Presence of concomitant abnormalities of the anterior segment of the eye (cataract, iridocorneal dysgenesia, congenital uveal ectropion uvea, etc.)
- Previous treatment with the study drugs
- Presence of concomitant systemic diseases (asthma, hypertension, cardiac disease, renal failure, etc.) that needs treatment with drugs, that could influence IOP (steroids, beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor -inhibitors diuretics, etc.)
- Abnormalities of the cornea that could influence IOP readings (marked cornea edema)
