Meta‐analysis of Genome‐Wide Association Studies Identifies Novel Loci Associated With Optic Disc Morphology

28 Jan 2015

Abstract excerpt

Primary open-angle glaucoma is the most common optic neuropathy and an important cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. The optic nerve head or optic disc is divided in two parts: a central cup (without nerve fibers) surrounded by the neuroretinal rim (containing axons of the retinal ganglion cells). The International Glaucoma Genetics Consortium conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies...
