<strong>Glaucoma</strong> is a disease of eye which is caused by excessive increase of fluid pressure within the eye. <strong>Glaucoma</strong><br />

is caused due <strong>to</strong> mechanical compression or decreased blood flow in the optic nerve of the patient’s eye. If not<br />

treated properly, it may lead <strong>to</strong> mild loss of vision <strong>and</strong> even blindness. Treatment of glaucoma includes laser<br />

therapies, pharmaceutical drugs <strong>and</strong> surgical procedures.<br />

Ocular hypertension is one of the major causes due <strong>to</strong> which glaucoma occurs in patients. <strong>Glaucoma</strong> mostly<br />

occurs at the age over 40, but it may also occur in children, young adults, <strong>and</strong> infants. Diagnosis of glaucoma can<br />

be done through a simple eye examination with the help of <strong>to</strong>nometry, an instrument used for measuring<br />

intraocular pressure, by an ophthalmologists <strong>and</strong> op<strong>to</strong>metrist. Prevention of glaucoma is difficult; however, if<br />

diagnosed <strong>and</strong> treated at an early stage, the disease can be controlled by using eye drops prescribed by doc<strong>to</strong>r,<br />

microsurgery or by laser surgery. <strong>Glaucoma</strong> can damage the vision of the affected eye permanently; in first stage<br />

it decreases the peripheral vision <strong>and</strong> if not treated, it can lead <strong>to</strong> blindness.<br />

cure the disease, the global glaucoma therapeutics market can be categorized as beta blockers, prostagl<strong>and</strong>ins,<br />

carbonic anhydrase inhibi<strong>to</strong>rs, alpha adrenergic agonists, <strong>and</strong> fixed dose combinations.<br />

Increase in awareness of glaucoma, medicare coverage of glaucoma patients <strong>and</strong> dem<strong>and</strong> for combination<br />
