Article Synopsis
- The study aims to explore the link between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) through a comprehensive review of existing research.
- The findings show that while many studies suggest a strong correlation between AD and POAG, there are also conflicting results, indicating that the relationship is still not fully understood.
- The authors call for more extensive research focusing on genetic factors and large-scale studies, and they suggest that current evidence warrants increased clinical awareness of the potential overlap between AD and glaucoma in affected patients.
