Family Aggregation of High Myopia: Estimation of the Sibling Recurrence Risk Ratio

23 Aug 2004

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To estimate the sibling recurrence risk (KS) and the sibling recurrence risk ratio (lambda(S)) for high myopia in a cohort in the United Kingdom. METHOD: The recurrence risks for myopia and high myopia were estimated in the siblings of 296 randomly selected high myopes ascertained from an optometric practice population. A model using an age of onset of spectacle wear for myopia of 9.1 +/- 0.7 years or...
