Abstract
Purpose: Prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy in patients with glaucoma is reportedly not caused by EP2 agonist, but it has been a cosmetic problem with prostaglandin F receptor (FP) agonists. In this study, patients with prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy on FP agonists were switched to EP2 agonist and changes were investigated. Methods: Patients complaining of prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy were included. The FP agonist was switched to EP2 agonist (omidenepag isopropyl), and patients were followed up for 7 months. Frontal photographs were taken at every visit, and objective changes in deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus were assessed by three observers. Subjective questionnaires (self-awareness of deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus, eyelid/peri-eyelid skin pigmentation, eyelash elongation, and conjunctival hyperemia) were acquired at the start and the endpoint. Factors associated with the change of prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy were investigated using logistic regression analysis. Results: Included were 23 eyes of 23 patients (17 women; 60.6 years). At 7 months, objective deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus improved by 76%. The subjective questionnaires showed that deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus improved in 95%, eyelid/peri-eyelid skin pigmentation in 76%. The less extent of myopia was a significant factor in the eyes with improved eyelid/peri-eyelid skin pigmentation. After switching, no change in intraocular pressure or visual acuity was observed (P ≥ 0.22). Conclusion: Switching to omidenepag isopropyl increased patient satisfaction and might be the first step to lightening deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus and eyelid/peri-eyelid skin pigmentation. It was suggested that pigmentation may be more easily improved in nonmyopic eyes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostaglandin analogues (PGAs; a first-line antiglaucoma treatment) have been remarketed as popular eyelash-lengthening serums due to their lash-lengthening and lash-thickening side effects. Periorbital volume loss is now a well-established side effect of topical PGAs used to treat glaucoma (prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy) but has not, to date, been listed as a potential side effect of lash-lengthening serums containing PGAs. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to identify whether periorbital fat/volume loss is seen in users of PGA lash lengtheners. METHODS This investigation comprised a case report and an informal randomized controlled study comparing "before-and-after" color photographs displayed on the websites of manufacturers of PGA-containing lash lengtheners (PGALLs) (ie, containing bimatoprost, norbimatoprost, isopropyl cloprostenate, dechloro-dihydroxy-difluoro-ethylcloprostenolamide, or methylamido-dihydro-noralfaprostal) vs 2 control groups: non-PGALLs (NPGALL) and false eyelashes (FLs). Expert and layperson blinded graders used a purpose-designed grading system to identify subtle signs of periorbital fat/volume loss over time. RESULTS A 35-year-old female developed thin, wrinkled, darker skin, and periorbital hollowing after 10 months of treatment with Lash Boost (Rodan & Fields, San Francisco, CA), containing isopropyl cloprostenate, which reversed 6 months after discontinuation. Fifteen "before-and-after" pairs of photographs (PGALL, n = 10; NPGALL, n = 3; FL, n = 2) were graded by 5 graders (3 expert, 2 layperson). Mean grading score was 8.2 (of 19) in the PGALL group, 2.3 in the NPGALL group, and 3.2 in the FL group. PGALL scores were significantly higher than scores in the NPGALL (P < 0.001) and FL (P = 0.017) groups. CONCLUSIONS Review of commercial "before-and-after" photographs suggests that PGALL users develop changes compatible with prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy. Consumers must be aware of the possibility of periorbital volume loss prior to commencing treatment with PGALLs. Often the customer-facing product ingredient list contains no mention of PGAs.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the periocular adverse reactions to omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI). DESIGN Nonrandomized comparative clinical study. METHODS We enrolled 100 patients (100 eyes) with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who received initial treatment with OMDI or tafluprost in only 1 eye for ≥6 months. Photographs of the eyelids were taken on the day of the participants' visit after ≥6 months of prescription. Subsequently, 3 ophthalmologists individually determined the occurrence of eyelid pigmentation, eyelash growth, and deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES). Additionally, a questionnaire on the subjective symptoms was administered. Multivariate analysis of baseline data was performed to investigate the factors involved in adverse reactions. RESULTS The mean duration of drug administration was 10.2 ± 3.8 and 10.8 ± 4.1 months in the OMDI and tafluprost groups, respectively. The frequencies of eyelid pigmentation, eyelash growth, and DUES were 0.0%, 0.0%, and 2.0%, respectively, in the OMDI group, whereas the corresponding values in the tafluprost group were 4.0%, 32.0%, and 12.0%. The only significant difference was that the OMDI group showed fewer patients with eyelash growth than in the tafluprost group (P < .0001). In the questionnaire, the subjective symptoms of eyelid pigmentation, eyelash growth, and DUES were 8.0%, 2.0%, and 4.0%, respectively, in the OMDI group, whereas the corresponding values in the tafluprost group were 12.0%, 40.0%, and 4.0%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed a correlation between the type of drug administered and these adverse reactions (R = 0.38, P = .005). CONCLUSIONS The frequencies of periocular adverse reactions to OMDI, ranging from 0% to 2.0%, were lower than those to tafluprost.

Abstract
Purpose This study reports a case of interpupillary distance (IPD) shortening after instillation of topical prostaglandin analog (PGA) eye drops. Observations The patient was a 36-year-old ophthalmic vitreoretinal surgeon from Tochigi, Japan, with primary open-angle glaucoma and bilaterally instilled PGA eye drops to decrease intraocular pressure. His IPD had been recorded closely based on surgical microscope settings. The patient had a stable IPD for over five years before the use of PGA drops. The patient noticed IPD shortening associated with latanoprost usage since four years. The IPD shortened further twice with temporal switching to bimatoprost. However, the IPD partially recovered both the times on discontinuing the medication over the course of several months. Conclusions and Importance Fluctuations in IPD with visible cosmetic changes occur in association with the use of topical PGA eye drops. There might be effects of PGA drops on binocular vision, which are possibly unaddressed and warrant further study.

Prostaglandin F2 and EP2 Agonists Exert Different Effects on 3D 3T3-L1 Spheroids during Their Culture Phase. Biomedicines 2021; 9:biomedicines9121821.

Abstract
To elucidate the effects of switching a PGF2α agonist, bimatoprost acid (BIM-A), to an EP2 agonist (Omidenepag—OMD; butaprost—Buta) or reversing the switching on adipose tissue, two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) cultures of 3T3-L1 cells were analyzed by lipid staining and according to the mRNA expression of adipogenesis-related genes (Pparγ, Ap2, and Leptin), components of the extracellular matrix (ECM; collagen1 (Col1), Col4, Col6, and fibronectin (Fn)), and the sizes and stiffness of the 3D spheroids. Switching from BIM-A to EP2 agonists caused (1) suppression of lipid staining and downregulation of most adipogenesis-related genes, (2) smaller and stiffer 3D spheroids, and (3) upregulation of Col1 and Fn, downregulation of Col4 (2D), or up-regulation of all ECM genes (3D, BIM-A to OMD), as well as downregulation of Col6 (3D, BIM-A to Buta). In contrast, reversing the switching resulted in (1) an enhancement in lipid staining (2D) and a significant upregulation of adipogenesis-related genes (2D, 3D Buta to BIM-A), (2) larger and slightly stiffer 3D spheroids, and (3) upregulation of Col1 and Fn (2D). These collective findings indicate that the switching orders of BIM-A and EP2 agonists have a significant effect on lipid metabolism, ECM expression, and the physical stiffness of 3T3-L1 cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Topical prostaglandin analogs (PGAs) are widely approved and preferred first-line options for glaucoma and elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). However, prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy syndrome (PAPS) is now a well-recognized clinical and cosmetic concern for patients receiving PGAs, especially during long-term and unilateral therapy. PGA-associated periocular changes occur in a substantial proportion of patients, with older patients (>60 years) at greater risk of clinical presentation. PAPS may hinder long-term management of glaucoma, including treatment adherence, ophthalmic surgery outcomes, and reliable IOP measurements. RECOMMENDATION New therapeutic approaches may address this unmet clinical need. Omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI) is a novel, non-prostaglandin, selective EP2 receptor agonist in ongoing development, which provides a unique pharmacological mechanism of action. OMDI appears to provide IOP reductions comparable to PGAs, but without PAPS-related undesirable effects. OMDI may offer a suitable long-term option for patients who demonstrate decreased efficacy, or failure, of PGAs, plus patients with significant PAPS, while fulfilling international guidelines.

Abstract
Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a glaucoma treatment that reduces intraocular pressure (IOP). Its mechanism is based on the biological effects of the selective application of laser energy to pigmented trabecular meshwork (TM) cells, resulting in increased outflow facility. Herein, we review current publications on SLT and summarize its efficacy and safety for different indications in open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and ocular hypertension (OHT) treatment. SLT effectively reduces IOP when used as a primary treatment. In patients whose IOP is medically controlled, SLT helps to reduce medication use, and when maximally tolerated topical therapy is ineffective, SLT facilitates the realization of the target IOP. SLT is a repeatable procedure for which the vast majority of complications are mild and self-limiting. With effective IOP reduction, low complication rates and the potential to repeat the procedure, SLT offers the possibility of delaying the introduction of medical therapy and other more invasive treatment modalities while simultaneously avoiding the accompanying complications. With this knowledge, we suggest that SLT be considered as an essential primary treatment option in OAG and OHT, switching to other treatment modalities only when laser procedures are insufficient for achieving the required target IOP.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the effect of switching from a prostanoid FP receptor agonists to EP2 receptor agonist (omidenepag isopropyl) on the deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES) and intraocular pressure (IOP) in Japanese glaucoma patients over 3 months post treatment. STUDY DESIGN Prospective observational study. METHODS Patients with glaucoma who received FP receptor agonists treatment and had complained of DUES-related reduction in quality of life were included. Their FP receptor agonists was switched to omidenepag isopropyl without a drug holiday. At baseline and 1 and 3 months post-switch, photographs were taken and the changes in DUES were assessed by three independent observers. IOP and adverse events were also assessed. RESULTS The study included 23 eyes of 23 patients (6 men, 17 women; average age, 60.6 years). After switching, DUES improved in 12 eyes at 1 month and in 16 eyes at 3 months; eyes in the remaining patients showed no worsening of the condition. The mean IOP before switching was 15.3 ± 3.3 mmHg (95% confidence interval 13.9-16.7 mmHg). Following the switch, the mean IOP values were 15.6 ± 3.3 mmHg (14.1-17.0 mmHg) at 1 month and 15.5 ± 3.3 mmHg (14.1-16.9 mmHg) at 3 months (P = 1.0 at 1 month, P = 1.0 at 3 months; both adjusted by Bonferroni correction). No adverse effects were observed. CONCLUSION Omidenepag isopropyl improved DUES while maintaining IOP in over 70% of Japanese patients with glaucoma who exhibited DUES caused by FP receptor agonists; the improvement was observed within 3 months after switching from FP receptor agonists.

Abstract
Intraocular pressure reduction is the only available and evidence-based medical therapy for glaucoma. Currently, the first-line eye drops are prostaglandin analogues including latanoprost, travoprost, bimatoprost, and tafluprost. These drugs stimulate intraocular prostanoid false positive (FP) receptors and reduce intraocular pressure by increasing mainly uveoscleral aqueous outflow. For 2 decades since latanoprost was launched, no drug has been comparable in its efficacy. In 2018, a prostanoid EP2 agonist, omidenepag, was launched in Japan. Current FP agonists and EP2 agonists indicate comparable intraocular pressure reduction by stimulating prostanoid FP or EP2 receptors. However, their safety profiles are quite different because of the differences between the intracellular signaling pathways through their own receptors. Including these commercially available FP and EP2 receptor agonists, prostanoid receptors have a large potential to control intraocular pressure. In this review I will trace the history and development of FP and EP2 receptor agonists from their original function, and explain their potential as first-line drugs including elucidation of their efficacy and safety.

Previous our study reported that three-dimension (3D) cultures of human orbital fibroblasts (HOFs) replicated the etiology of deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES) caused by prostaglandin F2α analogues (PGF2α-ags). To examine this further, the effects of PGF2α-ags on HOFs were characterized by (1) lipid staining (2D; two-dimension, 3D), (2) comparison of the 3D organoid sizes of preadipocytes (DIF-) or adipocytes (DIF+) that had been treated with various concentrations of several PGF2α-ags, (3) physical stiffness (3D), and (4) the mRNA expression of adipogenic related genes, extracellular matrix (ECM), tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) (3D). PGF2α-ags caused a dramatic down-sizing of the 3D DIF+ organoids and this reduction was concentration dependent. The effects caused by PGF2α-ags were also observed in 3D preadipocytes. Micro-squeezer analysis clearly indicated that PGF2α-ags induced an increase in their physical solidity. The size of each organoid under several conditions was inversely correlated with the mRNA expression profile of collagen1 (COL1), TIMP2, and MMP2 and 9. These findings indicate that PGF2α-ags affect the expression of COL1, TIMP2, and MMP2 and 9 which, in turn, modulate the 3D ECM network within the organoids, thus resulting in their downsizing.

Abstract
Purpose To elucidate the molecular etiology of deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES) induced by prostaglandin (PG) analogs, a three-dimensional (3D) tissue culture system was employed using human orbital fibroblasts (HOFs). Methods During adipogenesis, changes in HOF 3D organoid sizes, as well as their lipids stained by BODIPY and expression of the extracellular matrix (ECM) by immunolabeling and/or quantitative PCR, were studied in the presence or absence of either 100-nM bimatoprost acid or 100-nM prostaglandin F2α. Results The size of the 3D organoids increased remarkably during adipogenesis, but such increases were significantly inhibited by the presence of PG analogs. Staining intensities by BODIPY and mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma were significantly increased upon adipogenesis but were not influenced by the presence of PG analogs. Unique changes in ECM expression observed with or without adipogenic differentiation were significantly modified by the presence of PG analogs. Conclusions Our present study indicates that PG analogs have the potential to modulate the ECM network within HOF 3D organoids. Thus, a 3D tissue culture system may be a suitable strategy for understanding the disease etiology of DUES.

Abstract
PURPOSE Omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI) is the prodrug of omidenepag, a selective, non-prostaglandin, prostanoid EP2 receptor agonist, which has been shown to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT). This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of OMDI ophthalmic solution 0.002% in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or OHT who were non-/low responders to latanoprost. STUDY DESIGN Open-label, multicenter, Phase 3 study (NCT02822742). METHODS Following 1-4-week washout, patients were treated with latanoprost ophthalmic solution 0.005% during an 8-week run-in period. Patients with ≤15% IOP reduction at the end of the run-in (indicating non-/low response) received OMDI 0.002% (one drop once daily for 4 weeks). The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in mean diurnal IOP at Week 4. RESULTS In total, 26 patients were treated with OMDI; two withdrew owing to lack of efficacy. The mean diurnal IOP at baseline (end of latanoprost run-in) was 23.1 mmHg (7.6% IOP reduction from end of washout) indicating non-/low response to latanoprost. After 4 weeks of OMDI treatment, mean diurnal IOP was significantly reduced from baseline (-2.99 mmHg; P < 0.0001). No serious adverse events were reported. Adverse events occurred in five patients (19.2%); adverse drug reactions (anterior chamber cell, conjunctival hyperemia, and erythema of eyelid) occurred in two patients (7.7%) and were mild in severity. CONCLUSIONS In this study, OMDI 0.002% demonstrated a clinically significant reduction in IOP and was well tolerated in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and OHT who were non-/low responders to latanoprost.

Abstract
Purpose: We aimed at comparing the effects of omidenepag (OMD) with those of prostaglandin F (FP) receptor agonists (FP agonists) on adipogenesis in mouse 3T3-L1 cells. Methods: To evaluate the agonistic activities of OMD against the mouse EP2 (mEP2) receptor, we determined cAMP contents in mEP2 receptor-expressing CHO cells by using radioimmunoassays. Overall, 3T3-L1 cells were cultured in differentiation medium for 10 days and adipocyte differentiation was assessed according to Oil Red O-stained cell areas. Changes in expression levels of the adipogenic transcription factors Pparg, Cebpa, and Cebpb were determined by using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). OMD at 0.1, 1, 10, and 40 μmol/L, latanoprost free acid (LAT-A) at 0.1 μmol/L, or prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), at 0.1 μmol/L were added to cell culture media during adipogenesis. Oil Red O-stained areas and expression patterns of transcription factor targets of OMD or FP agonists were compared with those of untreated controls. Results: The 50% effective concentration (EC50) of OMD against the mEP2 receptor was 3.9 nmol/L. Accumulations of Oil Red O-stained lipid droplets were observed inside control cells on day 10. LAT-A and PGF2α significantly inhibited the accumulation of lipid droplets; however, OMD had no effect on this process even at concentrations up to 40 μmol/L. LAT-A and PGF2α significantly suppressed Pparg, Cebpa, and Cebpb gene expression levels during adipocyte differentiation. Conversely, OMD had no obvious effects on the expression levels of these genes. Conclusions: A selective EP2 receptor agonist, OMD, did not affect the adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells, whereas FP agonists significantly inhibited this process.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate changes in the interpupillary distance (IPD) after continual instillation of topical prostaglandin analogs (PGAs) in glaucoma patients as an objective indicator of prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy (PAP). DESIGN Retrospective, comparative case series. METHODS A total of 152 institutional patients with glaucoma were enrolled in this study. Inclusion criteria were visual acuities exceeding 10/20 bilaterally and no intraocular surgery during observation. Intervention/observation procedures: First-time bilateral instillation of bimatoprost, travoprost, latanoprost, or tafluprost and IPDs measured by automatic refractometry. IPDs, intraocular pressures (IOPs), and refractive errors were measured before and after continual drug administration (treatment, 2-24 months). MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS Post-treatment changes in IPDs. A total of 61 untreated patients served as controls. RESULTS The IPDs shortened significantly (P < 0.001) after treatment (-0.80 ± 2.1 mm); the IPDs of control subjects remained unchanged (0.05 ± 0.96 mm; P = 0.69). The IPD change after bimatoprost instillation (-2.20 ± 0.97 mm) was significantly (P < 0.001) greater than with other PGAs (-0.65 ± 2.09 mm). The IOPs decreased significantly (P < 0.001) (-3.7 ± 4.3 mm Hg); the refractive errors did not change significantly (P < 0.099) (-0.07 ± 0.69 diopter) post-treatment. The percentages of subjects with 2-mm or greater decreases in IPD after bimatoprost, travoprost, latanoprost, or tafluprost were 85.7%, 20.0%, 18.2%, and 17.2%, respectively, and with 3-mm or greater decreases in IPD 35.7%, 12.0%, 14.5%, and 12.1%, respectively. The specificities were 93.4% and 100% in the control group, respectively, with IPD threshold changes of 2 and 3 mm or more, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The IPD decreased significantly after topical PGAs within 24 months. The effect was significantly greater with bimatoprost than with other PGAs. The noninvasive, immediate automatic refractometry measurement may be an objective numerical indicator of PAP.

Abstract
Glaucoma is an irreversible progressive optic neuropathy, for which the major proven treatment is to lower the intraocular pressure (IOP). Five groups of IOP-lowering eye drops have varying mechanisms of action. Some drops, such as β-blockers and α-2 agonists, have potentially serious systemic side effects. Acetazolamide is the only available oral agent; it is effective at lowering IOP, but significant side effects relegate its use usually to refractory glaucoma. Two new eye drops, netarsudil and latanoprostene bunod, have recently been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. Both have novel IOP-lowering mechanisms and target the conventional aqueous outflow system. Selective laser trabeculoplasty is a gentle treatment that enhances conventional aqueous outflow. It may be used as an initial treatment, as a substitute for eye drops, or to delay glaucoma drainage surgery. Recent advancements in glaucoma surgery have seen an influx of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery devices, which are being used more frequently and earlier on in the treatment paradigm. As limited long term data are available, trabeculectomy remains the gold standard IOP-lowering procedure. Improvements in drug delivery are on the horizon. Drug-eluting devices and implants are able to deliver the drug closer to the receptors for an extended period of time. This will improve treatment adherence and efficacy, which are major limitations with current medical therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare pretarsal skin height (PTSH), as proxy indicator of deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus, in children with primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) treated with topical prostaglandin analogues (PGAs) with PTSH in healthy children (control group 1) and children with PCG but not using PGAs (control group 2). METHODS We recruited children with PCG who had been using PGAs for at least 6 months (PCG/PGA group). PTSH in all participants was measured using ImageJ software from photographs taken in a standardized manner. The PTSH was compared for the PCG group and both control groups. RESULTS A total of 34 children with PCG and 41 controls (31 in group 1; 10 in group 2) were included. The difference in PTSH between children in the PCG/PGA group and both control groups was statistically significant (mean difference, ≥1.7 mm [P < 0.01]). CONCLUSIONS The PTSH was significantly greater in children with PCG using PGAs compared to children with PCG not using PGAs and healthy children. Children and their parents should be counseled about lid abnormalities prior to commencing treatment with PGAs.

Effects of pre-surgical administration of prostaglandin analogs on the outcome of trabeculectomy. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0181550.

Abstract
For primary open angle glaucoma (POAG), laser treatment or surgery is used when the target intraocular pressure (IOP) cannot be achieved by pharmacological agents, such as prostaglandin (PG) analogs; these drugs also have varied effects. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 74 POAG patients (74 eyes) whose IOP was inadequately controlled by PG analogs (bimatoprost [13 eyes], latanoprost [34 eyes], tafluprost [11 eyes], and travoprost [16 eyes]) and underwent primary trabeculectomy. The proportion of patients with no recurrent IOP elevation within 24 months post-trabeculectomy was significantly (P < 0.001) lower in the bimatoprost group (31.3%) than in the latanoprost (83.2%), tafluprost (45.5%), or travoprost groups (65.6%). Deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES) was observed before trabeculectomy in 18 of 74 eyes (24.3%) treated with bimatoprost (9 eyes; 50.0%), latanoprost (3 eyes; 16.7%), tafluprost (1 eye; 5.5%) and travoprost (5 eyes; 27.8%). The proportion of patients with no recurrent IOP elevation up to 24 months post-trabeculectomy was significantly (P < 0.0001) lower in the DUES(+) group (34.7%) than in the DUES(-) group (74.3%). Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis, with no recurrent IOP elevation used as dependent variable, and bimatoprost, latanoprost, travoprost, tafluprost, β-blocker, carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, brimonidine, gender, age, preoperative IOP, mean deviation, duration of PG analog use before surgery, and the number of ophthalmic solutions used as independent variables, identified only bimatoprost as a significant independent factor (P = 0.0368). Thus, the outcome of trabeculectomy varied depending on the PG analog used preoperatively, and bimatoprost use was associated with a high risk of recurrent IOP elevation up to 2 years post-trabeculectomy. This may indicate that the incidence of DUES differed with the PG analog used. Patients with glaucoma who are treated with bimatoprost should be monitored for DUES, and when these patients undergo trabeculectomy, the postoperative course of IOP should be followed carefully.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine factors related to prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy (PAP) and its prevalence in glaucoma or ocular hypertension (OHT) patients using prostaglandins analogs (PGAs). DESIGN A cross-sectional study. METHODS A study of glaucoma or OHT patients, using topical PGAs for at least 3 months, was performed. Eyes treated with PGAs were photoraphed and independently evaluated for PAP by 2 glaucoma specialists using at least 4 out of 7 clinical appearances. The factors of interest were sex, age, body mass index (BMI), types of glaucoma, types of PGAs, duration of PGA use, and concurrent 0.5% timolol. Univariate (χ2 test) and multivariate (multiple logistic regression) analyses assessing risk factors for PAP were performed to estimate the odds ratios (OR) with 95% conidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS One hundred thirty-four eyes from 134 patients were included. Seventy (52.2%), 21 (15.7%), and 43 (32%) eyes received components of latanoprost, travoprost, and bimatoprost, respectively. Prevalence of PAP was 44.8% (95% CI, 36.3 to 53.3). Older age >60 years (OR, 3.0; 95% CI, 1.2 to 7.8), bimatoprost (OR, 4.0; 95% CI, 1.6 to 9.5), travoprost (OR, 3.3; 95% CI, 1.1 to 10.1), and timolol (OR, 2.9; 95% CI, 1.3 to 6.8) were at risk of PAP development. In addition, BMI ≥23 kg/㎡ (OR, 0.3; 95% CI, 0.1 to 0.7) was reversely associated with PAP. CONCLUSIONS Older age, bimatoprost, or travoprost were associated with PAP, whereas high BMI was found as a protective factor. Interestingly, timolol possibly precipitated periorbital change when in use with prostaglandins.

Prostaglandin analogue-induced pigmentation of the skin of the nasal septum and nasal alae in a glaucoma patient. Eur J Ophthalmol 2015; 25:e38-9.

Abstract
PURPOSE To present a case of topical prostaglandin analogue-induced skin pigmentation in a location previously never reported, with a differential diagnostic significance. CASE REPORT An 83-year-old man successfully treated for primary open-angle glaucoma of both eyes with the bimatoprost/timolol fixed combination for 6 years reported increased pigmentation of the skin of the nasal septum and alae. According to his report, the darkened skin area was not present when he was a young or middle-aged man. The patient had noted periocular pigmentation and deepening of the upper lid sulcus on both sides, which developed during the years of his bimatoprost/timolol treatment. Dermatology consultation excluded any nevus, malignancy, or other pathology as a cause of the pigmentation. The otorhinolaryngology consultation failed to identify any pathologic condition in the nasal cavity, but described mild chronic senile rhinitis. CONCLUSIONS The acquired pigmentation of the skin of the nasal septum and alae in our patient represents a new form of cutaneous pigmentation induced by topical prostaglandin analogue therapy, which may have differential diagnostic significance in clinical practice. We speculate that the senile rhinitis of the patient increased the exposure of the nasal skin to the prostaglandin analogue solution drained via the nasolacrimal duct, and could therefore play a role in the development of skin pigmentation in this location.
