Safety and Efficacy of Anti-Oxidants and Anti-inflammatory Agents in Glaucoma and Diabetic Retinopathy
Summary
This study is a multi-armed protocol designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two different combinations of nutritional supplements (study drug) (Glauco-Health and Glauco-Select) chosen for their potential to protect retinal ganglion cells against oxidative stress, low-grade inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction in patients with open-angle glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. Oxidative stress and retinal cellular dysfunction will be measured using a Retinal Metabolic Analyzer (RMA) in this randomized, single center, double masked study. Patients with glaucoma will be divided into three treatment arms randomized to receive either Glauco-Health, Glauco-Select, or placebo.
