Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to analyze the role of the two primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) genes, trabecular meshwork-induced glucocorticoid response (TIGR/MYOC) and optineurin (OPTN), in Finnish glaucoma families originating from southern coast of Finland. METHODS: In total, 136 patients were examined to determine their ophthalmological status. Genealogical studies were performed using church...
