comparative study of the efficacy of either krytantek ofteno pf® or eliptic ofteno pf® plus gaap ofteno pf® for poag or ocular hypertension.

Conditions: Glaucoma, Open-Angle; Ocular Hypertension

Summary: phase iv randomized, double blind, multicenter, parallel group clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of the combined use of krytantek ofteno pf® and gaap ofteno pf®, both applied every 12 hours, versus the use of eliptic ofteno pf® plus gaap ofteno pf®, both applied every 12 hours, in patients with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension during 90 days
