Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

selective alpha-2 receptor agonists cause changes in intraocular pressure and pupillary size thus may affect patient quality of life.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Low dosage selective alpha-2 receptor agonists topical eyedrop
  • Drug: High dosage selective alpha-2 receptor agonists topical eyedrop
N/A

Detailed Description

In this research, we will analyze the effect of selective alpha-2 receptor agonists on the human eye and investigate ocular changes over 6 months after its topical use.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Glaucoma suspect group

Cases diagnosed as glaucoma suspect

Drug: Low dosage selective alpha-2 receptor agonists topical eyedrop
Using selective alpha-2 receptor agonists eyedrop in both groups with 0.2% concentration.
Other Names:
  • Topical selective alpha-2 receptor agonists
  • Drug: High dosage selective alpha-2 receptor agonists topical eyedrop
    Using selective alpha-2 receptor agonists eyedrop in both groups with 0.02% concentration.
    Other Names:
  • Topical selective alpha-2 receptor agonists
  • Active Comparator: Post-refractive surgery group

    Cases had undergone refractive surgery

    Drug: Low dosage selective alpha-2 receptor agonists topical eyedrop
    Using selective alpha-2 receptor agonists eyedrop in both groups with 0.2% concentration.
    Other Names:
  • Topical selective alpha-2 receptor agonists
  • Drug: High dosage selective alpha-2 receptor agonists topical eyedrop
    Using selective alpha-2 receptor agonists eyedrop in both groups with 0.02% concentration.
    Other Names:
  • Topical selective alpha-2 receptor agonists
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Intraocular pressure [Baseline and 6 months after regular use of the topical eyedrops]

      Changes in intraocular pressure measured in mmHg by applanation tonometry

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Pupillary diameter [Baseline and 6 months after regular use of the topical eyedrops]

      Changes in the pupillary diameter measured in mm by handheld pupillometer
