Revisiting the Trans-Ancestry Genetic Correlation of Refractive Error

2025-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose</h4> The prevalence of myopia varies significantly across the globe. This may be a consequence of differences in exposure to lifestyle risk factors or differences in genetic susceptibility across ancestry groups. “Trans-ancestry genetic correlation” quantifies the similarity in genetic predisposition to a trait or disease between different populations. We aimed to calculate the trans-ancestry genetic c...
