Ethnic and Mouse Strain Differences in Central Corneal Thickness and Association with Pigmentation Phenotype
The cornea is a transparent structure that permits the refraction of light into the eye. Evidence from a range of studies indicates that central corneal thickness (CCT) is strongly genetically determined. Support for a genetic component comes from data showing significant variation in CCT between di...
