Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • 1. Age ≥ 18 years
  • 2. Documented diagnosis of bilateral POAG or ocular hypertension as determined by the investigator based on medical record review.
  • 3. At Screening (V1), the subject completed SLT in both the eyes within the last 90 days.
  • 4. Mean diurnal IOP of 16 to 28 mmHg at Randomization (V2 )
  • 5. At Randomization (V2), in the opinion of the investigator, subject may benefit from additional IOP reduction in the study eye and is a candidate for treatment with Rhopressa
  • 6. At Randomization (V2), if treated with IOP-lowering medication(s) in either eye prior to SLT, subject has completed the minimum washout period for the medication(s) (see Table 1)
  • 7. If female, subject is either incapable of pregnancy (e.g., history of bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation) or post-menopausal (amenorrheic for at least 2 years) or will use an effective (e.g., double barrier) method of birth control for the duration of the study
  • 1. History of more than one treatment with SLT in either eye
  • 2. Unable or unwilling to discontinue current IOP-lowering medication(s), if applicable
  • 3. Prior or current treatment with a rho kinase inhibitor
  • 4. Prior microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS)
  • 5. Advanced stage of glaucoma, as determined by the investigator based on medical record review
  • 6. Any condition that prevents reliable applanation tonometry in either eye (e.g., significant corneal surface abnormalities, scars, keratoconus)
  • 7. Previous or currently active corneal disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, could affect the study outcomes
  • 8. Active or recurrent intraocular infection, inflammation, iritis or uveitis
  • 9. Retinal disease (e.g., diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, central retinal vein or artery occlusion, macular edema)
  • 10. Intraocular injection performed ≤ 6 months prior to Screening (V1)
  • 11. Anticipated use of any topical ocular steroids and/or topical ocular nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) during the study period
  • 12. Current participation in any drug or device clinical investigation, receipt of investigational drug within 6 drug half-lives of Screening (V1), or any previous placement of an investigational device.
  • 13. Any condition in the opinion of the investigator that would potentially confound the results of this study
