Glaucoma Polygenic Risk Score
Glaucoma damages the optic nerve, often without symptoms until sight is lost. It is strongly heritable, and eye pressure checks can find it early.
A risk score adds up many common variants, each with a small effect, into an estimate of genetic predisposition. It is not a diagnosis.
