Wilmer Institute at Johns Hopkins coordinates five-center research led by Dr A Edward Maumenee and Dr Irvin Pre who have studied 600 patients and families to identify early eye changes and timing for therapy. Open angle glaucoma is most common, progressive, with heredity emerging as a factor. routine checks for relatives over 40 are urged as treatment cannot reverse damage once vision loss begins. Funding comes from Public Health Service at 30000 dollars annually with a team of five technicians assisting.
