In 352 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, a multicenter double-masked, parallel-group clinical study compared the effects on intraocular pressure and ocular comfort of 0.5% betaxolol ophthalmic solution, a cardioselective beta-adrenergic blocking agent, with 0.25% betaxolol suspension. With twice-daily dosages, baseline intraocular pressure was significantly reduced (P = .0005), with no significant difference between the two groups, at Week 2 and at Months 1, 2, and 3. Further, the prevalence of ocular discomfort upon topical instillation was significantly lower for 0.25% betaxolol suspension than for 0.5% betaxolol solution (P = .0005).
