... Evidence gleaned from both clinical trials and real-world studies long has suggested that this fixed-dose combination offers important clinical benefits which compare favorably to other treatment options in terms of sustained IOP reduction, long-term IOP control, and patient tolerability.

... Often, patients with glaucoma require lifetime topical therapy and OSD has been reported in up to 59% of patients [4,5]. Preservatives in topical antiglaucoma drops disrupt the ocular surface by a variety of mechanisms resulting in decreased tear film stability and increased evaporation [6,7]. The side effects of preserved eye drop administration include ocular hyperemia, burning, stinging, and itching that are exacerbated by an unstable tear film [7]. ...
