flufenamic acid has been researched along with Glaucoma in 2 studies
Flufenamic Acid: An anthranilic acid derivative with analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties. It is used in musculoskeletal and joint disorders and administered by mouth and topically. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p16)
flufenamic acid : An aromatic amino acid consisting of anthranilic acid carrying an N-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl substituent. An analgesic and anti-inflammatory, it is used in rheumatic disorders.
Glaucoma: An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.

| "Implants with a regime of fibrosis suppression (prednisolone 30 mg daily plus fluphenamic acid 200 mg three times a day for 6 to 8 weeks) controlled the intraocular pressure (applanation tonometry (AT) less than 21 mm Hg) in seven out of ten patients with different types of glaucoma." | 3.66 | Glaucoma implants. Their use in difficult cases of glaucoma. ( Bartholomew, RS, 1978) |
| "The methods used to identify and evaluate anti-inflammatory agents, and the effects of a triple drug regimen, consisting of oral prednisone and flufenamic acid and topical l-adrenaline in controlling bleb inflammation and fibrosis around drainage implants in patients with terminal glaucoma are described." | 3.65 | Control of bleb fibrosis after glaucoma surgery by anti-inflammatory agents.
