The long-term effects of topical latanoprost 0.005% treatment on pupillary functions: A 2-year longitudinal study
CONCLUSION: The long-term topical latanoprost 0.005% treatment in early-stage POAG has a slight mydriatic effect on the pupil. Further longitudinal clinical studies with larger patient cohorts are necessary to better understand the effects of latanoprost on pupillary functions.PMID:38238940 | DOI:10.1177/11206721241227780 (Source: European Journal of Ophthalmology)

Human experience and efficacy of omidenepag isopropyl (Eybelis ®; Omlonti®): Discovery to approval of the novel non-prostaglandin EP2-receptor-selective agonist ocular hypotensive drug
Curr Opin Pharmacol. 2024 Jan 1;74:102426. doi: 10.1016/j.coph.2023.102426. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMore than 75 million people worldwide suffer from ocular hypertension (OHT)-associated retinal and optic nerve degenerative diseases that cause visual impairment and can lead to blindness. In an effort to find novel pharmaceutical therapeutics to combat OHT with reduced side-effect potential, several emerging drug candidates have advanced to human proof-of-concept in recent years. One such compound is a nonprostaglandin (non-PG) EP2-receptor-selective agonist (omidenepag isopropyl ester). Omidenepag (OMD; free acid for...
