Exploring ethnic and racial differences in intraocular pressure and glaucoma: The Canadian Longitudinal Study on aging.

Purpose: To determine whether self-reported race/ethnicity is associated with intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma and to explore whether any associations are due to social, behavioral, genetic, or health differences.

Design: Cross-sectional analysis of population-based data.

Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging Comprehensive Cohort, consisting of 30,097 adults ages 45 to 85 years, was done. Data were collected from 2012 to 2015.
