Abstract
Glaucoma, a chronic progressive neurodegenerative disease, has both intraocular pressure dependent and independent pathogenetic mechanisms. Medical therapy is the first line of treatment in glaucoma management. Patient adherence and persistence to pharmacotherapy is a great barrier to its success. This review highlights the recent advances in medical management and discusses newer pharmacotherapy including new molecules with novel mechanisms of action, novel target molecules/genes/tissues, and newer drug delivery systems, many of which are still in clinical trial phase.
