- Brief Summary
To evaluate the IOP (Intraocular Pressure) lowering efficacy and safety of Brinzolamide 1.0% (Azopt), dosed twice daily as adjunctive therapy in patients treated with Travoprost 0.004% (Travatan) once daily. The study is double masked. The patients will receive either treatment for 12 weeks.
