Hi.
Lumigan increase the uveoscleral outflow, in normal words it increase the drainage of aqueous from the eye, which in return lowers the intraocular pressure mean IOP/ eye pressure.
Different eye pressure target is set set for different glaucoma patients, according to their severity and progressiveness.
So, if target pressure is achieved and no progression is seen, the yes we can say glaucoma is under control
