HLA‐antigen typing of 39 patients with capsular glaucoma and 40 with simplex glaucoma showed a significantly higher frequency of Bw35 in the capsular glaucoma group compared to a control group of 985 blood donors. In the simplex glaucoma group Bw35 was less frequent and the difference was not significant.
