Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: We estimated the relative importance of genes and environment in dry eye disease (DED) using a classic twin study. METHODS: A large sample of 3930 female monozygotic and dizygotic twins from the UK Adult Twin Registry (TwinsUK) was questioned about the presence of a DED diagnosis and abo...
