Overdiagnosis of open-angle glaucoma in the general population: the Thessaloniki Eye Study.

The overdiagnosis of OAG was substantial in this elderly, Caucasian population. The overdiagnosis of glaucoma has not been previously addressed in population-based studies and needs to be further explored.

Twelve-Year Incidence and Baseline Risk Factors for Pseudoexfoliation: The Thessaloniki Eye Study (An American Ophthalmological Society Thesis).

This is one of the very few longitudinal population-based studies that has specifically assessed the incidence of PEX.

Factors Associated With Retinal Vessel Diameters in an Elderly Population: the Thessaloniki Eye Study.

Our study confirms previous reports about the association of age and BP with vessel diameters.

Twelve-Year Incidence of Open-angle Glaucoma: The Thessaloniki Eye Study.

The incidence of OAG was similar or higher compared with other White populations. The incidence of glaucoma in those with PEX was higher compared with the incidence of glaucoma in those without PEX.

Association Between Dietary Salt Intake and Open Angle Glaucoma in the Thessaloniki Eye Study.

In TES participants assessed for OAG in the prevalence and incidence phases, frequent salt intake may be associated with increased OAG in those who take antihypertensive medication.

Glaucoma in Black Individuals: How Far Have We Come and Where Do We Go From Here?

Though our understanding of the disparities in glaucoma in Black individuals has grown over the past decades, gaps persist, particularly due to deficient data driven by a lack of studies in this disproportionately burdened group.

Screening of Glaucoma in High-Risk Minority Populations.

There is still no clear consensus on the effectiveness of glaucoma screening for the general population.
