Contribution of genetic and environmental effects on lens thickness: the Guangzhou Twin Eye study.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science - 2 Apr 2012

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: This study investigated the heritability of lens thickness (LT) and relative lens thickness (LT/axial length, rLT) measured by Lenstar among Chinese children and adolescents in the Guangzhou Twin Eye study. METHODS: Twins aged 8 to 22 years were enrolled from the Guangzhou Twin Registry. A series of LT and axial length (AL) measurements using the Lenstar were taken for each twin. Zygosity was confirmed...
