Abstract excerpt
The etiology of primary open angle glaucoma is constituted by both intraocular pressure-dependent and intraocular pressure-independent mechanisms. However, GWASs of traits affecting primary open angle glaucoma through mechanisms independent of intraocular pressure remains limited. Here, we address this gap by subtracting the genetic effects of a GWAS for intraocular pressure from a GWAS for primary open angle...
