rs10483727

rs10483727 is a non-coding tag SNP at the SIX1/SIX6 locus on chromosome 14, near genes that regulate optic nerve and retinal ganglion cell development. Genome-wide association studies link the variant to primary open-angle glaucoma (odds ratio about 1.32) and to vertical cup-to-disc ratio, a heritable measure of optic nerve cupping used in glaucoma risk assessment, with the association strongest in East Asian and European cohorts.
