Evaluating the association between autoimmune disease and normal tension glaucoma: a retrospective case-control study [PDF]
BMC OphthalmologyBackground Limited population-based data as well as proposed mechanisms of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss suggest autoimmune disease may be a risk factor for glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide.
