Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether 24-hour fluctuation of intraocular pressure
(IOP) is associated with central corneal thickness (CCT) in subjects with ocular hypertension
or open angle glaucoma and in age-matched controls. Also to evaluate whether mean IOP
reduction as a response to latanoprost (0.005% Xalatan) is associated with CCT, after a
4-weeks period of treatment.
Also, to evaluate whether 24-hour fluctuation of IOP is associated with corneal hysteresis
(CH) measured by Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA).
