The randomized clinical study included 165 eyes of 165 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or pseudoexfoliation glaucoma scheduled for phacoemulsification. Patients received travoprost, timolol or brinzolamide after cataract surgery, and IOP was measured 1 hour preoperatively, at the end of surgery, and at 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours postoperatively.
