Objectives: To measure aqueous dynamic variables in patients with open-angle glaucoma
when their ocular hypotensive treatment was withdrawn and to determine if the circadian
rhythm of the aqueous humor flow was present in open-angle glaucoma. Methods: We
studied 20 patients with open-angle glaucoma, and a group of 20 healthy subjects served as
controls. Aqueous humor flow was measured by clearance of topically applied fluorescein
with a fluorophotometer, tonography was used to measure outflow facility, and applanation …
