Summary

The aim of this study will be to determine the effects of pilocarpine as an adjunct medication to latanoprost monotherapy at multiple intervals throughout a 24-hour period and compare these effects to latanoprost alone.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • open angle glaucoma, or
  • ocular hypertension including pigment dispersion glaucoma, and

  • any race/ethnicity

Exclusion Criteria

  • Females who are currently pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the study period
  • Diagnosis of any other form of glaucoma other than open-angle
  • Intraocular pressure readings of <14mmHg in either eye when measured during routine office visit in the past 12 months.
  • Schaffer angle grade < 2 in either eye by gonioscopy
  • Intraocular surgery within 6 months or laser within 3 months
  • History of retinal tear or detachment in either eye
  • Active iritis in either eye as determined by most recent eye examination
  • Patients who smoke or have irregular daily sleep patterns
