Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients With Primary-open Angle Glaucoma: No Role for a Screening Program

This study confirms a high prevalence of OSA among patients with POAG which is, however, not higher than in people without glaucoma matched for known OSA risk factors. Our results do not support screening for OSA in patients with POAG.
