Great to be presenting at Glaucoma Australia's Live Q&A again this month. Prof Jamie Craig & I presented on the SightScore polygenic risk score and Seonix Bio's new service offering testing to unaffected relatives of people with glaucoma!

Great paper led by Dr Nia Kolovos from our FHMRI Eye & Vision team about the use of genetic testing for glaucoma in the clinic. We describe the monogenic and polygenic contributors to glaucoma diagnosed across the lifespan to support clinicians seeing families with glaucoma.
