Glaucoma Treatment

The Collaborative Initial Glaucoma Treatment Study (CIGTS) was a randomized clinical trial to determine whether patients with newly diagnosed open-angle glaucoma (OAG) were managed better by initial treatment with medications (using a stepped regimen of medications starting initially with a topical beta-blocker) or by immediate filtration surgery (trabeculectomy with or without 5-fluorouracil). Although the surgery group achieved a lower mean intraocular pressure (IOP) than the medication group, both groups had similarly low rates of visual field progression. Three measures of IOP fluctuation over extended time, the range of IOP, the standard deviation of IOP, and the maximum IOP, seem to play an important role in visual field progression The results showed that more aggressive treatment was warranted when undue elevation or variation in IOP measures is observed.
