Ioprost Efficacy
The Art Of IOP Modulation Rather Than Reduction.
Ioprost
- Provides powerful IOP reduction:
 |
| Ioprost achieves up to 35 % reduction in IOP from baseline |
- Decreases the risk of visual field deterioration:
 |
| Ioprost reduces the diurnal variation of IOP by 36 % as the large fluctuation in the diurnal IOP represents a risk factor for the progression of visual field loss even after adjusting the elevated IOP. |

- Ioprost maintains low IOP over 24 hours
 |
| Therefore, Ioprost leads to uniform circadian reduction in the IOP. |

Ioprost improves the ocular circulation, as:

Therefore, Ioprost is beneficial for glaucoma patients suffering from ocular vascular dysregulation. |
