In studied population, genotype CC and allele C of rs9851685 OPA1 polymorphism are NTG risk factors, whereas TT genotype and T allele of this polymorphism are protective factors against NTG. Genotype GA of rs2111534 MFN1 polymorphism is an HTG risk factor and AA genotype of this polymorphism is a protective factor against HTG. Several OPA1 and MFN2 genotype combinations are significantly associated with either increased or decreased risk of glaucoma in this population.
