Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To assess the distribution and heritability of intraocular pressure (IOP) in Chinese children. METHODS: Twins aged 8 to 16 years were recruited from the Guangzhou Twin Registry. IOP was measured in each twin and co-twin together, with a handheld tonometer by the same operator. Zygosity was determined based on genotyping with 16 polymorphic markers in all same-sex twin pairs. Heritability was estimated...
