Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Maximum Observed Travoprost Free Acid Plasma Concentration (Cmax) [ Time Frame: Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose ]
    Travoprost free acid plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). Cmax was calculated for each participant with at least 1 quantifiable time point.

  2. Time to Reach Cmax (Tmax) [ Time Frame: Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose ]
    Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). Tmax was calculated for each participant with at least 1 quantifiable time point.

  3. Time to Last Measurable Concentration (Tlast) [ Time Frame: Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose ]
    Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). Tlast was calculated for each participant with at least 1 quantifiable time point.

  4. Area Under the Analyte Plasma Concentration-time Curve to the Last Quantifiable Sampling Time Point [AUC(0-tlast)] [ Time Frame: Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose ]
    Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). AUC(0-tlast) was calculated for each participant with at least 2 quantifiable time points.

  5. Area Under the Analyte Plasma Concentration-time Curve Over the Dosing Interval (Inf)[AUC(0-∞)] [ Time Frame: Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose ]
    Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). AUC(0-∞) was calculated for each participant with at least 3 quantifiable time points.

  6. Half-life (t½) [ Time Frame: Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose ]
    Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). T½ was calculated for each participant with at least 3 quantifiable time points.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of glaucoma or ocular hypertension in at least 1 eye.
  • Parent/legal guardian must provide informed consent, and children must agree to sign an approved assent form when applicable.
  • Must agree to comply with the requirements of the study and must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria may apply.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Females of childbearing potential that are currently pregnant, have a positive result on a pregnancy test at the Screening Visit, intend to become pregnant during the study period, are breast feeding, or are not using birth control measures.
  • One sighted eye or monocular, including patients who cannot be dosed in both eyes for any reason.
  • History of chronic, recurrent or severe inflammatory eye disease.
  • Ocular trauma requiring medical attention within the past 3 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Ocular infection or ocular inflammation within the past 30 days prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Clinically significant or progressive retinal disease such as retinal degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or retinal detachment.
  • Other severe ocular pathology (including severe dry eye), that in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude the administration of a topical prostaglandin analogue.
  • Intraocular surgery within the past 30 days prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Any abnormality preventing reliable tonometry.
  • Any other conditions including severe illness which would make the patient, in the opinion of the Investigator, unsuitable for the study.
  • Hypersensitivity to prostaglandin analogues or to any component of the study medications in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Therapy with another investigational agent or device within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Body weight < 5kg.
