Travaprost without BAC (Travatan Z)

A double blind comparison was used to assess whether Xalatan or TrvatanZ affects the tear breakup times, corneal staining, and baseline tear secretion tests in patients that are already taking latanoprost regularly with complaints of dryness and irritation. Patients included in the study will be given two bottles, one labeled for their right eye and the other for their left eye. Each pair of bottles will be identical in appearance and randomized with either latanoprost or travoprost and each pair will be assigned a number to aid in future analysis of the final results. One Drop from both bottles will be dispensed in the respective eye once a day.
