Preservative-free Fixed-dose Combination of Tafluprost 0.0015% / Timolol 0.5% in Patients With Open-angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension: Clinical Effectiveness, Tolerability and Safety in a Real World Setting

The primary objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of Tafluprost / Timolol in controlling ocular hypertension, as measured by mean change in intra-ocular pressure (IOP) from baseline to after 6 months of treatment from initiation, in patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT), who do not respond sufficiently to initial topical treatment, in routine clinical practice.

This study will include adults with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, who received their first Tafluprost / Timolol prescription at baseline, even if Tafluprost / Timolol was not continued after the first prescription. In addition, patients must have their IOP recorded within 7 days before their first prescription of Tafluprost / Timolol, in order to be eligible for this study. Only those who provide informed consent will be included.

At the time of a scheduled clinic visit, eligible patients will be invited to participate in the study and willing patients will be requested to sign an informed consent form. Once informed consent is obtained, the patient is included in the study and relevant data will be recorded during routine clinical visits. Participation in this study is entirely voluntary; any patient may withdraw consent to participate in this study at any time. The withdrawn patient's data will not be analyzed in this study and the number of patients who withdrew consent will appear in the final study report.
