Abstract excerpt
This study aims to investigate the associations of multiple single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with the risk and magnitude of corneal astigmatism (CA) in children. A total of 14 SNPs were genotyped in 2167 Chinese children aged 4–11 years, recruited from the Hong Kong Children Eye Study. The main outcomes were allelic associations with the risk of significant CA (≥ 1.0D) and magnitude of CA. Allelic...
