Socioeconomic and Environmental Factors Associated with Glaucoma in an African Ancestry Population: Findings from the Primary Open-Angle African American Glaucoma Genetics (POAAGG) Study

2024-02-20

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness, disproportionately affecting African ancestry individuals. Limited research has explored how neighborhood quality and socioeconomic factors influence primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) risk in this population. Our study aims to address these research gaps by using geospatial data to evaluate associations between ocular health and...
