Association of Genetic Variation With Keratoconus.

In this relatively large keratoconus genome-wide association study, we identified a genome-wide significant locus for keratoconus in the region of PNPLA2 on chromosome 11.

Direct and Indirect Associations Between Diabetes and Intraocular Pressure: The Singapore Epidemiology of Eye Diseases Study.

Diabetes or higher long-term hyperglycemia was associated with higher IOP.

Genetic Association at the 9p21 Glaucoma Locus Contributes to Sex Bias in Normal-Tension Glaucoma.

This study demonstrated that female sex is a risk factor for developing advanced NTG.

Association of open-angle glaucoma loci with incident glaucoma in the Blue Mountains Eye Study.

This study shows that previously reported genetic variations related to OAG and cup-to-disc ratio are associated with the onset of OAG and thus may become useful in risk prediction algorithms designed to target early treatment…
