Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To describe the clinical characteristics of a Y-sutural cataract associated with myopia in a large Chinese family and to identify the causative gene and mutation. METHODS: An autosomal dominant Y-sutural cataract and myopia were identified in members of a large family of Han ethnicity living in southern China. Ophthalmological examinations were performed and a medical history was taken. Blood samples...
