Abstract
This was the first study to examine the prevalence, awareness, and risk factors of POAG in the Korean population using 4-year KNHANES data. Koreans with higher IOP, myopia, older age, male gender, hypertension, and nonoverweight status require more attention and support from the glaucoma screening and surveillance systems.
