Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To determine the prevalence of the transforming growth factor (TGF) β-induced gene corneal dystrophies in refractive surgery candidates in China. SETTING: Five hospitals in China. DESIGN: Prospective case series. METHOD: Refractive surgical candidates from 5 preselected eye hospitals/centers in China were recruited after providing informed consent. All patients had slitlamp biomicroscopy and collection...
