Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To detect variants in 17 known potentially causative genes for non-syndromic myopia in 67 Tujia Chinese patients with early-onset high myopia (eo-HM). METHODS: DNA from 67 unrelated patients with early onset (<7 years old) high myopia (refraction error ≤ -6.00D or axial length > 26 mm) were subjected to whole-exome sequencing (WES). Variants in 17 candidate genes were analysed by multistep bioinformatics...
