2021-07-19
Abstract excerpt
Juvenile open angle glaucoma (JOAG) is a severe type of glaucoma with childhood onset and dominant inheritance. Using exome sequencing we identified 3 independent families from the Philippines with rare EFEMP1 variants (c.238A>T, p.Asn80Tyr; c.1480T>C p.Ter494Glnext*29; and c.1429C>T, p.Arg477Cysteine ) co-segregating with disease. Affected variant carriers (N= 34) exhibited severe disease with average age of onse...
