Brief description Glaucoma is a highly heritable complex disease and the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. We used genetic techniques on a disease registry of individuals with glaucoma blindness to define risk factors associated with poor visual outcomes. The knowledge obtained from defining these risk factors will be used in a prospective longitudinal study to determine whether we can predict if individuals suspected of having glaucoma (glaucoma suspects) will progress to manifest vision loss.
