Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Exfoliation syndrome (XFS) is an age-related ocular condition that is characterized by the accumulation of fibrillogranular extracellular material in intra- and extraocular tissues. The purpose of the present study was to identify the genetic basis of XFS in a large Finnish family. METHODS: A genome-wide scan with 1000 microsatellite markers was performed in an extended family from an island in the...
