Glaucoma is still one of the leading causes of irreversible low vision and blindness worldwide. Effective treatment for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is an important issue in modern ophthalmology. Topical IOP-lowering agents are prescribed to control glaucoma and to normalize IOP. 60% to 80% of glaucoma patients receive exactly medical treatment, i.e., daily instillations of eye drops. Preservative-containing antiglaucoma drops induce secondary “dry eye” syndrome, conjunctival hyperemia, thereby reducing the patient’s adherence to treatment and, in some cases, provoking self-abolition of antiglaucoma drugs by patients.<br>
The article reviews the data on IOP-lowering effect and tolerability of preservative-free tafluprost 0.0015% in patients with POAG and ocular hypertension who have switched from preservative-containing prostaglandin analogues. Preservative-free tafluprost characterized by high IOP-lowering efficacy keeps the IOP under control when switching to this agent. Tafluprost has also good tolerability in terms of improved subjective complaints and signs of dry eye as well as objective ocular surface criteria. Switching from preservative-containing tafluprost to preservative-free formulation is reasonable and can improve compliance due to its efficacy.<br>
