CI, confidence interval; β, coefficient represents a comparison of IOP in the treatment group relative to that in the placebo group (negative values indicate that the treatment group had a lower IOP compared to that in the placebo group).
Adjusted for age at eye exam, duration of hormone therapy, race, body mass index, treatment adherence, lens status (pseudophakia, yes/no, excluding aphakia), and history of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, smoking, or alcohol use.
Reported glaucoma or glaucoma treatment at the Women's Health Initiative baseline examination or the Women's Health Initiative Sight Exam study visits.
