Table 4. Association between rs33912345 genotype and optic nerve head parameters stratified by age tertile.

Results are from multivariable linear regression models with the optic nerve head parameter as the dependent variable and genotype dosage as an explanatory variable, adjusted for sex, disc area, axial length and IOPg. P-values < 0.006 (Bonferroni-corrected significance threshold for 9 tests) are in bold.
