Intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma. Genetic determinants of intraocular pressure can provide critical insights into the genetic architecture of glaucoma and, as a result, open new avenues for therapeutic intervention. We performed a genome-wide association study and replication analysis of 8,552 Chinese participants. In the genome-wide association study, we identified 51 loci that surpassed the significance of P<9×10 , and we formally replicated these loci. A combined discovery and replication meta-analysis identified 21 genome-wide loci that surpassed the genome-wide significance of P<5×10 , including 4 previously reported loci: rs145063132 (7p21.2, ETV1/DGKB), rs548030386 (7q31.2, ST7 near CAV1/CAV2), rs7047871 (9p24.2, GLIS3), and rs2472494 (9q31.1, ABCA1/S
