Abstract excerpt

The occurrence of primary open glaucoma (POAG) in families proves the hypothesis that POAG is a disease with underlying genetic factors. This work describes a family of four generations, in which eight members suffered from POAG. In the 3rd and 4th generation members, the disease occurred at an early age (between the age of 20-40 years), i.e. at a much earlier age than it could be expected. Therefore, a need...
