The genetics of POAG in black South Africans: a candidate gene association study.

Scientific reports - 11 Feb 2015

Williams Susan E I, Carmichael Trevor R, Allingham R Rand, Hauser Michael, Ramsay Michele

Abstract excerpt

Multiple loci have been associated with either primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) or heritable ocular quantitative traits associated with this condition. This study examined the association of these loci with POAG, with central corneal thickness (CCT), vertical cup-to-disc ratio (VCDR) and with d...
