Visual functions, hydrodynamics, and blood flow in internal carotid arteries were evaluated in 60 patients with primary glaucoma and essential hypertension. Effects of systemic and local beta-adrenoblockers, and combinations of local hypotensive agents with calcium antagonists and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, were studied. The negative effect of a combination of local and oral beta-adrenoblockers and the positive effect of a combination of local hypotensive agents with oral capotene were revealed. Capotene is recommended for the treatment of glaucomatous patients with essential hypertension. LA: Russian
