Genotype-Phenotype Correlations in Corneal Dystrophies: Advances in Molecular Genetics and Therapeutic Insights.

Abstract excerpt

Corneal dystrophies are a group of predominantly rare inherited disorders. They are by definition bilateral, relatively symmetrical, and without systemic involvement, affecting corneal transparency and/or refraction. Traditional classification of corneal dystrophies is based on slit-lamp appearance, affected corneal layer and histological features. Molecular genetics has provided ultimate proof for the existence...
