Summary |
rs3825942 C/C
|
Common but 10x higher glaucoma risk in most (but not all) populations |
rs3825942 C/T
|
Possibly lower glaucoma risk
}}
unless you are a black south african, probably lower than average risk of exfoliation glaucoma (pex).{{pmid|20142848 |
rs3825942 T/T
|
10x to 27x lower risk of exfoliation glaucoma
}}
unless you are a black south african, this uncommon snp drastically reduces your risk of exfoliation glaucoma (also known as exfoliation syndrome, or pseudoexfoliation syndrome pex). that form of glaucoma causes up to 10% of the cases of blindness in many countries, including the us. {{pmid|17690259}} this mutation may not protect you from other kinds of glaucoma though.{{pmid|20142848 |
Note: For some SNPs, testing providers detect the genotype from the opposite strand of DNA, so that the genotypes listed on openSNP don't appear here. In those cases, please replace "A" by "T" or "G" by "C" (and vice-versa).
