primary angle closure glaucoma

[obophenotype-user]

Dear Peter

I’ve got a question on HPO please.

I’ve been running exomiser on some exome data from ‘primary angle closure glaucoma’ patients

using corresponding HPO term “HPO:0012109”.

Yesterday during a meeting with the ophthalmologists who own the data we checked the definition for

HPO:0012109 on http://compbio.charite.de/phenexplorer/ , that is “A type of glaucoma with optic nerve damage in an eye that does not

have evidence of angle closure and in which there is no evidence of a secondary cause.”, and thought there might be an error.

The definition should read something like:

“A type of glaucoma with optic nerve damage in an eye that does

have evidence of angle closure and in which there is no evidence of a secondary cause.”

We were wondering if that definition in any way can affect the analysis results and

whether you could amend the definition on the HPO links.
