Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To compare the effect of twice-daily instillation of 0.25% of nipradilol, an alfa-1, beta-blocker, vs. that of twice-daily instillation of 0.5% of timolol maleate, a non-selective beta-blocker, to inhibit progression of visual field defect in Japanese patients with normal-tension glaucoma.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

O'Brien score of each patient derived from the regression coefficient against time of mean sensitivity (MD value) by cluster measured using the Humphrey Field Analyzer C30-2

Key secondary outcomes

-Regression coefficient of MD value against time
-Regression coefficient of MD value against time by cluster
-Regression coefficient of corrected pattern standard deviation (CPSD) value against time
-Time to event of progression of visual field defect
-Intraocular pressure
-Time to occurrence of optic disc hemorrhage
-Time to occurrence of optic disc progression
