[Frequency of HLA antigens in Greek patients with open-angle glaucoma]. / Häufigkeit der HLA-Antigene bei griechischen Patienten mit Offenwinkel-Glaukom.

50 Greek patients with primary open-angle glaucoma were tissue-typed for a total of 29 HLA antigens (groups A and B). The results were compared with those of 200 control persons. A statistically significant difference at the level of p less than 0.05 was noted only with regard to the A2 antigen. These findings are in accordance with those of other authors who found no correlation between glaucoma simplex and the frequency of HLA antigens.
