A comparative study of anterior segment variables between glaucomatous and non-glaucomatous Ghanaians

Risk factors for different stages of severity of primary open-angle glaucoma are revealed. Thinner central corneas, lower corneal volumes, and elevated intraocular pressure measurements are risk factors for primary open-angle glaucoma in Ghanaians.
