Trial Outcomes

The Extent of Latanoprost, Bimatoprost and Travoprost Induced Periocular Skin Hyperpigmentation Over a One Year Time Course in Newly Diagnosed Primary Open Angle and Ocular Hypertension Patients.

"Periocular skin color was measured with the Minolta Chroma Meter CR-400 and the L*a*b* system, also known as Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage. This is a well-accepted unit of measurement in which L* corresponds to brightness and a* and b* correspond to chromaticity.~Measurements were taken at baseline and 1 year. Data from each time point and each location (upper and lower eyelids or cheeks/face) were averaged, and subtracted from the baseline value for that location. Six predetermined areas on and around the upper and lower eyelid and 2 areas of the face/cheek were measured.Upper and lower eyelid values were averaged and reported as single value for each location ie;-upper eyelids, lower eyelid and cheek/face. A decrease in luminance indicates increased pigmentation at the site of measurement." (NCT00705757)
