Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To estimate the heritabilities of myopia and ocular biometrics among different family types among a Korean population. METHODS: We studied 1508 adults in the Healthy Twin Study. Spherical equivalent, axial length, anterior chamber depth, and corneal astigmatism were measured by refraction, corneal topography, and A-scan ultrasonography. To see the degree of resemblance among different types of family...
