Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Travoprost Intraocular Implant, high elution This implant will be surgically implanted and elute travoprost, a prostaglandin. |
Drug: Travoprost Intraocular Implant, high elution
Surgical implant placed within the eye to elute travoprost.
|
Experimental: Travoprost Intraocular Implant, low elution This implant will be surgically implanted and elute travoprost, a prostaglandin. |
Drug: Travoprost Intraocular Implant, low elution
Surgical implant placed within the eye to elute travoprost

Active Comparator: Timolol Maleate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5% Timolol, a beta blocker, will be dosed twice daily |
Drug: Timolol Maleate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5%
Instillation of one drop of timolol in the study eye twice daily
