Phase 3 — Testing in thousands of people, comparing the treatment against what doctors currently use. This is the last big step before approval.
This trial is comparing two versions of bimatoprost, an eye drop medication used to treat glaucoma (a condition where pressure builds up in your eye and can damage vision) and ocular hypertension (abnormally high eye pressure). One version is the brand-name LUMIGAN®, and the other is a generic version made by a different company. The study wants to confirm that both versions work equally well at lowering eye pressure.
Generic medications are often less expensive than brand-name versions and can make treatment more affordable for patients. Before a generic eye drop can be approved and sold, it must be proven to work just as well as the original brand-name medication.

If you qualify, you will be randomly assigned to receive either the generic eye drop or the brand-name LUMIGAN®. You will instill one drop in both eyes every evening at about 10:00 pm for 6 weeks. During this time, you will have clinic visits to check your eye pressure and overall eye health. The study team will measure your eye pressure at 2 weeks and again at 6 weeks to see how well the medication is working and to watch for any side effects.
