Summary:

      The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Brinzolamide/Brimonidine
      in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) relative to each of its individual active components
      in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
    

Eligibility criteria:

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Diagnosed with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, and, in the opinion of the
             Investigator, are insufficiently controlled on monotherapy or are currently on
             multiple IOP-lowering medications.

          -  Meet qualifying IOP entry criteria.

          -  Able to understand and sign an informed consent form.

          -  Other protocol-specified inclusion criteria may apply.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Women of childbearing potential if pregnant, test positive for pregnancy at Screening
             Visit, breastfeeding, or not in agreement to use adequate birth control methods to
             prevent pregnancy throughout the study.

          -  Severe central visual field loss.

          -  Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) score worse than 55 ETDRS letters (20/80 Snellen
             equivalent).

          -  Chronic, recurrent or severe inflammatory eye disease.

          -  Ocular trauma within the preceding 6 months.

          -  Ocular infection or ocular inflammation within the preceding 3 months.

          -  Clinically significant or progressive retinal disease.

          -  Other ocular pathology.

          -  Intraocular surgery within the 6 months prior to entry.

          -  Ocular laser surgery within the 3 months prior to entry.

          -  Any abnormality preventing reliable applanation tonometry.

          -  Any other conditions, including severe illness, which would make the subject, in the
             opinion of the Investigator, unsuitable for the study.

          -  Recent use of high-dose (>1 gram daily) salicylate therapy.

          -  Recent, current, or anticipated treatment with any medication that augments adrenergic
             responses, or precludes use of an alpha-adrenergic agonist.

          -  Concurrent use of glucocorticoid medications administered by any route.

          -  Other protocol-specified exclusion crtieria may apply.
