Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To replicate the finding of the association of five CDKN2B-AS1 gene polymorphisms (rs7865618, rs1063192, rs944800, rs2157719, and rs4977756) with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and to analyze them for possible association with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXFG) in a Caucasian population of Central Russia.
