- Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in 24-hr Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4 ]IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Change was calculated by taking the change from baseline at each time point and averaging the available changes. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
- Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Daytime IOP at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4 ]IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in mmHg. Change was calculated by taking the change from baseline at each time point (8 AM through 8 PM) and averaging the available changes. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
- Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Nocturnal IOP at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4 ]IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in mmHg. Change was calculated by taking the change from baseline at each time point (10 PM through 6 AM) and averaging the available changes. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
