Abstract excerpt
Purpose: To investigate the genetic relationships between primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and major visual pathways in the brain to better understand the neurological biology of glaucoma, which may facilitate the discovery of neuroprotective drug targets. Methods: We assessed the relationship between POAG and the volumes of five visual pathway regions using genetic correlation and polygenic risk score (PRS)....
