Compounds of this invention are useful for alleviating glaucoma. The utility of the compounds of this invention for alleviating glaucoma has been evaluated by measuring the ability of test compounds to inhibit carbonic anhydrase esterase and the ability to reduce the intraocular pressure. Methods used in this invention for evaluating these abilities are described below.
Carbonic Anhydrase Esterase Inhibition
It is generally known that carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are useful for the treatment of glaucoma. The carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activities have been evaluated by spectrophotometrically measuring the rate of hydrolysis of 1 mM p-nitrophenyl acetate catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase B according to the procedure described in J. Armstrong et al., J. Biol. Chem., Vol 241, No. 21, pp 5137-5149 (1966).
Values of IC.sub.50 determined for some of the compounds of this invention are presented in Table 1.

ALPHA-CHYMOTRYPSIN-INDUCED OCULAR HYPERTENSION
Purpose:
The purpose of this procedure is to develop an animal model which displays symptoms of glaucoma. This is done by the direct injection of the proteolytic enzyme, alpha-chymotrypsin into the posterior chamber of the rabbit eye.
Procedure:
Ocular hypertension is elicited in New Zealand White rabbits (2.0-2.5 kg) by the injection of alpha-chymotrypsin into the posterior chamber as described by Sears and Sears (Am. J. Ophthalmol. 77, 378-383, (1974). Briefly, the animals are pretreated with indomethacin (10 mg/kg i.p.) to prevent the otherwise immediate onset of inflammation. One hour later, the rabbits are anesthetized with a 2 ml intramuscular injection of a 50:50 mixture of xylazine (20 mg/kg) and ketamine (100 mg/kg). The eyes are individually proptosed and treated topically with 50 microliters of 0.5% proparacaine. The anterior chamber is cannulated with a 30-gauge needle attached to a reservoir set at a pressure of 25 mmHg. Then, 0.5 ml of alpha-chymotrypsin (350 units) is injected through the pupil near the limbus and into the posterior chamber using an S-curved, 30-gauge needle. During the injection, the tip of the needle is swept across the posterior chamber to distribute the enzyme. Care is taken to avoid injection of any enzyme into the corneal stroma. Both needles can then be carefully removed to prevent any significant loss of aqueous humor.
The eyes are examined biweekly for corneal lacerations and overt inflammatory responses. Rabbits demonstrating severe eye inflammation are subsequently discarded from future studies. The intraocular pressures of the operated rabbits are checked approximately four weeks posttreatment. Those exhibiting clear corneas and pressures greater than 30 mmHg (i.e., approximately 10 mmHg above the value observed in normal untreated rabbit eyes) are used for the studying the effect of drugs on intraocular pressure in ocular hypertensive eyes. Generally, about 50% of the operated eyes are suitable for study. Intraocular pressure is measured with a standard instrument and the results are expressed in terms of maximum (over measurement time) percentage drop of intraocular pressure. Results of some of the compounds of this invention are presented also in Table 1.
Intraocular pressure reduction is achieved when the compounds of this invention are administered to a subject requiring such treatment as an effective topical dose of 0.01 to 3.0% solution or suspension. A particularly effective amount is about 3 drops of a 1% preparation per day. It is to be understood, however, that for any particular subject, specific dosage regimens should be adjusted according to the individual need and the professional judgment of the person administering or supervising the administration of the aforesaid compound. It is to be further understood that the dosages set forth herein are exemplary only and that they do not, to any extent, limit the scope or practice of the invention.
