Se realizó un estudio descriptivo con el propósito de identificar los principales factores de riesgo de glaucoma en pacientes ciegos por esta enfermedad afiliados a la Asociación Nacional de Ciegos (ANCI) de la provincia de Camagüey. Se estudiaron 70 pacientes, mayores de 16 años con estas características y que acudieron a la consulta del hospital clínico quirúrgico docente Manuel Ascunce Domenech, desde marzo de 2002 a marzo de 2004. La mayoría de los pacientes estudiados sobrepasaban los 60 años de edad, eran de raza blanca y sexo masculino.
