Glaucoma cascade screening in relatives of young Haitian patients found 30.8% had manifest or suspected glaucoma, highlighting the high yield and need for improved participation and awareness in this high-risk population.

This study found no significant genetic overlap between myopia and primary open-angle glaucoma, suggesting their co-occurrence isn't due to shared common gene variants, except for optic disc size.

This study found a copy number variant at chromosome 5q21.2 significantly increases intraocular pressure by 1.56 mmHg, identifying a novel genetic factor influencing glaucoma risk.

This study found twins differ from singleton siblings in some ocular traits (e.g., axial length, visual acuity) but not others. Clinical relevance: Twin study results for certain ocular traits may not generalize to the wider population.

Studying repeated IOP measurements in twins showed more readings, especially from both eyes, increase IOP heritability estimates, improving power for genetic glaucoma research.
