Among Caucasians, it is well known that 75–95% of primary glaucoma is due to open-angle
glaucoma (POAG), with angle-closure (PACG) comprising only a very small minority of …

Purpose Recent estimates for PACG prevalence in the general population (0.4% in those
over 40 years old) are 2-4 times higher than previous estimates (0.1-0.25%). One study from …

Purpose: Primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is more prevalent among Chinese than
whites. The authors tested the hypothesis that Chinese have shallower anterior chambers …

Purpose: To determine if more severe stages of angle closure, defined as primary angle
closure or primary angle closure glaucoma (PAC/PACG), are more prevalent amongst …

The prevalence of primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and of narrow angle width both
increase with age. Both also show cross-racial differences. However, little is known about …
