Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Not specified
Study typeTreatment
Scientific title
Study objectivesIt is hypothesised that locally applied prostaglandins improve ocular haemodynamics in normal tension glaucoma patients.
Ethics approval(s)The study was performed in accordance to institutional, national, and international guidelines and was approved by the local ethics committee.
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedNormal tension glaucoma
InterventionAdministration of latanoprost or bimatoprost eye drops.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Bimatoprost, latanoprost
Primary outcome measureOcular perfusion is assessed by Doppler imaging. Primary endpoints are the peak systolic velocity (PSV) and end-diastolic velocity (EDV) in the short posterior ciliary artery.
Secondary outcome measuresSecondary endpoints are:
1. The PSV and EDV in:
1.1. The long posterior ciliary artery,
1.2. The central retinal artery, and
1.3. The ophthalmic artery
2. Resistivity index, pulsatility index and time average velocity (maximum and mean) in all four vessels
3. Intraocular pressure
