• People whose two consecutive visual field tests at the start of the study show results that are close to each other (difference of less than 2 dB)
• People whose best corrected vision (with glasses or contact lenses if needed) is at or above a certain level (0.2) in the eye being considered for treatment
• If both eyes meet the study requirements, one eye will be chosen at random by computer for participation
• People whose eye pressure is considered stable in the opinion of the study doctor
• People who are able to follow the study schedule and complete all required visits and tasks
• People who are able to understand and sign a consent form (if vision makes reading difficult, the form will be read aloud in full)
