Intraocular Pressure (IOP)
Comparison of both groups mean diurnal IOP at Week 4 (Day 29). IOP will be measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry and reported in millimeters mercury (mmHg). A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). Mean diurnal IOP was calculated as the average of 3 IOP values across 09:00, 11:00 and 16:00 time points.
Time frame: 29 Days
IOP at Weeks 1 and 2
Mean diurnal IOP as measured in mmHg at each post-treatment visit.
Time frame: Day 8, Day 15
Mean Change IOP From Baseline at Days 8, 15, 29
Mean change from baseline in mean diurnal IOP as measured in mmHg at each post-treatment visit.
Time frame: Baseline (Day 1), Days 8, 15, 29
