- Prevalence of open-angle glaucoma among adults in the United States. (2004, background): “The data on Hispanic subjects came from a single study of mostly Mexican-derived Latinos from Arizona.(8) Prevalence estimates showed similar increases with age, but with a markedly higher prevalence in the oldest Hispanic subjects (Table 3).”
- The Ocular Hypertension Treatment Study: baseline factors that predict the onset of primary open-angle glaucoma. (2002, result): “Although this small sample size prevented detailed analysis, the results were consistent with a recent population survey that found a higher prevalence of POAG in Hispanic subjects.(27) Family history of glaucoma is a well-established risk factor for POAG.”
