There is one clinical trial.
The purpose of this study is to determine if one of the genes that can cause glaucoma, called myocilin, are associated with larger eye pressure and blood pressure changes in sitting and lying down positions without glaucoma drug treatment and with glaucoma drug treatment with a combination medication called CosoptĀ® (Merck & Co., Inc.).
