Journal ArticleDOI
Number of people with glaucoma worldwide
TL;DR: In this article, the prevalence of glaucoma among people worldwide was estimated by using available published data to determine the relation of open angle and angle closure with age in people of European, African, and Asian origin.
Journal Article
Models of open-angle glaucoma prevalence and incidence in the United States.
Harry A. Quigley,Susan Vitale +1 more
TL;DR: Meta-analysis to obtain pooled prevalence estimates for glaucoma provides useful information on length of disease and age distribution of those affected and may assist in estimating treatment effects and associated costs to derive data that effect health care decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Family History and Risk of Primary Open Angle Glaucoma: The Baltimore Eye Survey
TL;DR: In this paper, a population-based prevalence survey identified 161 cases of primary open angle glaucoma among 5308 black and white residents of east Baltimore, Md, who were 40 years of age or older.
Journal ArticleDOI

Keith R Martin,Harry A. Quigley,Donald J. Zack,Hana Levkovitch-Verbin,Jennifer Kielczewski,Danielle Valenta,Lisa A. Baumrind,Mary E. Pease,Ronald Klein,William W. Hauswirth +9 more
TL;DR: Overexpression of the BDNF gene protects RGC as estimated by axon counts in a rat glaucoma model, further supporting the potential feasibility of neurotrophic therapy as a complement to the lowering of IOP in the treatment of glAUcoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Race-, age-, gender-, and refractive error-related differences in the normal optic disc.
Rohit Varma,James M. Tielsch,Harry A. Quigley,Sterling C. Hilton,Joanne Katz,George L Spaeth,Alfred Sommer +6 more
