The effect of dexamethasone on borderline ocular hypertension.

The topical steroid testing with dexamethasone 0.1% (Decadron) of one eye of 36 specially selected borderline ocular hypertensive patients produced a positive response in 25%. Similar testing of the second eye of 4 monocular open angle glaucoma patients produced a positive response in 75%. The test was thought to provide guidance for closer observation of the positive reactors, indications for therapy, and a reduction in patient clinic visits.
