What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing Lumify™ eye drops, which help reduce eye redness, in glaucoma patients who are already using Brimonidine eye drops. These patients often have red eyes as a side effect of their current treatment. Lumify™ works by making the blood vessels in the eyes smaller, which helps to reduce redness.
