Three of these variants are also genome‐wide significant ( p < 5E‐08) in every other retinal field in both the left and right eyes (rs1126809 [ TYR ], rs1800407 [ OCA2 ] and rs12913832 [ OCA2‐HERC2 ]), whilst a broader set of 8 further variants were at least nominally significant in every other subfield GWAS (rs377695367 [ GDPD4 ], rs62075723 [ NPLOC4‐TSPAN10 ], rs1410996 [ CFHR3 ], rs443134 [ CFH‐CFHR3 ], rs3770526 [ MREG ], rs2625955 [ RHO ], rs4840499 [ PRSS51 ] and rs57819090 [ C8orf74 ]).
