Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To determine MYOC gene mutation frequency in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) from Western Switzerland. METHODS: A total of 117 unselected index patients with primary open-angle glaucoma were submitted to a full eye examination. DNA was extracted from blood and PCR amplicons of MYOC exon 3 were screened for mutations by single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis. Abnormal...
