[Results of combined use of taufon and timolol in the treatment of patients with open-angle glaucoma].

The effect of taufon and timolol maleate combination on intraocular pressure and ocular hemodynamics was studied in 44 patients (63 eyes) with primary open-angle glaucoma. Combined administration of these agents elevated almost twofold the fluid discharge efficacy coefficient and normalized Becker's coefficient in 68.6 percent of patients. The patients were followed up for 8 weeks. Taufon addition to timolol modified the action of this latter drug, normalizing the ocular hemodynamics.
