24-Hour Intraocular Pressure Control Obtained With the Bimatoprost/Timolol Fixed Combination Compared With Latanoprost as First Choice Therapy in Subjects With Exfoliation Syndrome, or Exfoliative Glaucoma
The primary objective of this crossover 24-hour Intraocular Pressure (IOP) trial is to compare the control obtained after 3 months of therapy with the bimatoprost/timolol fixed combination (BTFC, Ganfort) given once in the evening (20:00) versus latanoprost (Xalatan) administered once in the evening (20:00) in newly-diagnosed patients with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) and ocular hypertension, or exfoliative glaucoma (XFG) previously untreated and IOP greater than 29 mm Hg.

Conditions
- Glaucoma
Interventions
- Bimatoprost/Timolol, 24-hour intraocular pressure monitoring
- Latanoprost, 24-hour intraocular pressure monitoring
Primary outcomes
- 24-hour IOP reduction between the two medications — 3 months
Bimatoprost/Timolol will obtain a statistically greater 24-hour IOP reduction than latanoprost and the mean 24-hour IOP difference between the two medications will be clinically meaningful (at least 2 mm Hg).
