Prevalence of MYOC risk variants for glaucoma in different populations.

We found 13 missense and 5 loss-of-function (LOF) reported variants in MYOC that were both probable pathogenic or risk variants and listed in gnomAD.

Association of APOE Haplotypes With Common Age-Related Ocular Diseases in 412,171 Individuals.

Our results support prior evidence of the inverse association of APOE ε4 with glaucoma, but the association was weaker than for AMD.

Association of the MYOC p.(Gln368Ter) Variant With Glaucoma in a Finnish Population.

This genetic association study found that the MYOC p.(Gln368Ter) variant was associated with exfoliation glaucoma.

Analysis of glaucoma genes in Finnish patients with juvenile open-angle glaucoma.

The frequency of pathogenic variants in previously known glaucoma-associated genes is low in Finnish patients with JOAG.

The incidence of serious complications after selective laser trabeculoplasty.

After SLT, the number of complications was low, with only one permanent vision deterioration after 6081 treatments.

Genetic Risk for Open-Angle Glaucoma Subtypes Is Associated with Specific Visual Field Defect Classes.

Higher POAG PRSs and NTG PRSs were associated with paracentral VF loss, whereas higher HTG GRS was linked to total VF loss, but not paracentral defects.
