[Clinical experience in treatment of glaucoma with timolol (author's transl)]

Forty patients with primary and secondary glaucoma were treated with the beta-blocking agent Timolol for six months. We used a 0.25% or 0.5% solution twice a day. In several cases sufficient pressure regulation was achieved by means of Timolol monotherapy. If pilocarpine or acetazolamide therapy was not sufficient we used a combination therapy with Timolol.
