Prevalence of granular corneal dystrophy type 2-related TGFBI p.R124H variant in a South Korean population.

Abstract excerpt

Purpose: Granular corneal dystrophy type 2 (GCD2) is an autosomal dominant disorder and is associated with the arginine to histidine substitution at codon 124 (p.R124H) of the TGFBI gene.
