Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical and genetic features of late-onset Fuchs corneal dystrophy (FCD) on Tangier, an island in the Chesapeake Bay with an isolated population of approximately 500 individuals. DESIGN: Observational, cross-sectional study. METHODS: A total of 156 individuals born to inhabitants of Tangier Island volunteered to undergo ophthalmic evaluation. Medical history was ascertained prior to...
