Analysis of four SNPs (rs8017304, rs2588809, rs4351379, and rs13095226) in the early and exudative AMD and control groups showed a statistically significant difference only in genotype (TT, TC, and CC) distribution of COL8A1 rs13095226, when compared to the exudative AMD and control groups (60.2%, 33.6%, and 6.1% vs. 64.9%, 32.3%, and 2.9%, respectively, p = 0.036) (Table 3). Here, COL8A1 is linked to age-related macular degeneration.
