  • {"criterion_text":"- VFI (Visual Field Index)≥65%, applicable for both eyes even if only one eye will be included."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Patient should be previously untreated with intraocular pressure lowering medication."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Age: 40-78 years at time of inclusion."}

Exclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Pregnant or breast feeding women or women in childbearing potential not using acceptable contraceptive method."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Patients with contraindications to the glaucoma medicine to be given."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- If there is any obstacle for performing the LTP."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Disease or condition that probably prohibits long-term follow-up."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Intraocular surgery except uncomplicated cataract operation."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Diabetes with proliferative retionopathy or serious non-proliferative retionopathy [(intra-retinal bleedings, pronounced intra-retinal microvasculation, \"definite venous beading\" macular edema with hard exudates that reach fovea according to International Clinical Diabetic Retionopathy and Macular Edema Disease Severity scales (Wilkinson et al 2003)]."}
  • {"criterion_text":"- Neurological and other non-glaucoma conditions, except cataract, that can affect the vision."}

Endpoints

Primary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Rate of progression, the aim of the study is to compare and follow-up the patients on traditional clinical treatment with those receiving more intensive treatment, and measure the rate of progression as long as possible.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Perimetric rate of progression (compare perimetric progression between treatment strategies); perimetry (Standard Automated Perimetry with Humphrey Field Analyser) and longitudinal follow-up to measure rate of progression."}

Secondary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Quality of life","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Quality of life measured for randomised patients at one month and after 3, 5, 8 and 10 years; QoL in relation to treatment alternative and rate of progression."}
  • {"endpoint_text":"- Compliance and adherence","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Monitor the effect of adherence on rate of progression (adherence/compliance monitoring described as a secondary objective)."}
