Grant Activity:
Translating the genetic determinants of glaucoma
Purpose:
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. In Australia the total cost of glaucoma will exceed $4.3 billion per annum by 2027. Reducing the disease burden depends critically upon leveraging genetic information. I will expand our knowledge of the genes responsible for glaucoma and develop an evidence base for incorporating genetic testing into clinical practice. This will reduce monitoring costs in low risk individuals and reduce blindness in high risk individuals.
