Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Angle closure glaucoma is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| COL11A1collagen type XI alpha 1 chain | Always | In 1 condition |
| ATOH7atonal bHLH transcription factor 7 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| FZD4frizzled class receptor 4 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| LRP5LDL receptor related protein 5 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| NDPnorrin cystine knot growth factor NDP | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| TMEM98transmembrane protein 98 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| COL18A1collagen type XVIII alpha 1 chain | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| MFRPmembrane frizzled-related protein | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
