-diagnosed of unilateral or bilateral primary open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension;
-on treatment with an IOP-lowering prostaglandin analogue/beta blocker combination for at least 6 months;
-on treatment with an IOP ?21 mmHg measured as the mean of both eyes at two measurements at least one hour apart;

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: To confirm the clinical non-inferiority of the preservative-free fixed combination Latanoprost/ Timolol eye drops compared with the marketed preservative-containing Xalacom? eye drops by the average decrease of diurnal IOP measured between the first and last visit;Secondary Objective: The average decreases of diurnal IOP measured between baseline and days 7 and 14 and the proportion of patients with measured IOP <21 mmHg at the end of the clinical trial;Primary end point(s): Diurnal IOP measured by ocular tonometry (Goldmann Applanation Tonometry);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 28 days
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): ?number of withdrawals for therapeutic failure (diurnal IOP ?21 mmHg at any time point during or at the end of the clinical trial will be analysed by using Fisher?s exact test.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 28 days
