Table 2. Comparison of the phenotype variables between POAG patients with and without the MYOC.mt1 variant

Comparison of the phenotype variables between POAG patients with and without the MYOC.mt1 variant. The influence of the MYOC.mt1 polymorphism on different clinical parameters did not differ between MYOC.mt1 carriers and non-carriers.
