Genetic susceptibility and mechanisms for refractive error.

Clinical genetics - 1 Aug 2013

Stambolian D

Abstract excerpt

Refractive errors, myopia and hyperopia, are the most common causes of visual impairment worldwide. Recent advances in genetics have been utilized to identify a wealth of genetic loci believed to contain susceptibility genes for refractive error (RE). The current genetic evidence confirms that RE is influenced by both common and rare variants with a significant environmental component. These studies argue that...
