Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness. Current glaucoma medications work by lowering intraocular pressure (IOP), risk factor for glaucoma, but most treatments do not directly target the pathological changes to increased IOP, which can manifest as medication resistance disease progresses. To identify physiological modulators we performed genome- and exome-wide association analysis in >129,000 individuals with IOP measurements extended these findings an risk. We report identification...
