African Americans exhibit a 6 to 8 times higher likelihood of developing glaucoma compared to white Americans. Those with diabetes are twice as likely to get glaucoma in comparison to individuals without diabetes. Hispanic Americans share a heightened risk akin to African Americans, with the added complexity of potentially faster disease progression as they age, contrasting with other ethnic groups. Asians are more susceptible to less common forms of glaucoma, including angle-closure glaucoma and normal-tension glaucoma.”
