Purposes: To assess the relationship between serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and refractive error in Korean adolescents. Methods: A total of 2,038 adolescent aged 13-18 years, who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from 2008 to 2011 underwent refractive examination using an autorefractor. Serum 25(OH)D concentration and other potent...
Worldwide, and especially in Asia, myopia is a major vision-threatening disorder. From AD 1600 on, to prevent myopia, authors warned against near work without sufficient pauses. There was an abundance of theories about the causes of myopia, the most common one being the necessity of extra convergence on nearby work with thickened extraocular muscles and elevated intraocular pressure. Ocular ten...
Any treatment to prevent the onset of juvenile myopia will require predictive tests in order to determine which children should receive treatment. Three risk factors for myopia were evaluated for their ability to predict myopia: (a) refraction at school entry; (b) refraction in infancy; and (c) parental history of myopia. Bayes' theorem was used to estimate these conditional probabilities. Refr...
High myopia, which is extremely prevalent in the Chinese population, is one of the leading causes of blindness in the world. Genetic factors play a critical role in the development of the condition. To identify the genetic variants associated with high myopia in the Han Chinese, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 493,947 SNPs in 1088 individuals (419 cases and 669 controls) ...
PURPOSE Mutations in the NYX gene are known to cause complete congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB1), which is always accompanied by high myopia. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between NYX mutations and high myopia with or without CSNB1. METHODS Four Chinese families having high myopia with or without CSNB1 and 96 normal controls were recruited. We searched for ...
PURPOSE To identify null mutations in novel genes associated with early-onset high myopia using whole exome sequencing. METHODS Null mutations, including homozygous and compound heterozygous truncations, were selected from whole exome sequencing data for 298 probands with early-onset high myopia. These data were compared with those of 507 probands with other forms of eye diseases. Null mutati...
BACKGROUND Previous studies of the association between COL1A1 polymorphisms and high myopia risk have yielded conflicting results. To help resolve the discrepancies, we performed a meta-analysis to estimate the relationship between COL1A1 polymorphisms and high myopia risk. METHODS We searched for case-control and cohort studies in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and OVID. Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confiden...
Myopia is of diverse aetiology. A small proportion of myopia is clearly familial, generally early in onset and of high level, with defined chromosomal localisations and in some cases, causal genetic mutations. However, in economically developed societies, most myopia appears during childhood, particularly during the school years. The chromosomal localisations characterised so far for high famil...
PURPOSE High myopia is a severe hereditary ocular disease leading to blindness. LAMA1 (alpha subunit of laminin) is a promising candidate gene for high myopia present in the MYP2 (myopia 2) region. The purpose of this study was to determine if high myopia is associated with single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants in LAMA1 in Chinese subjects. METHODS Ninety-seven Chinese subjects with h...
PURPOSE Myopia and its extreme form, high myopia, are common vision disorders worldwide, especially in Asia. Identifying genetic markers is a useful step toward understanding the genetic basis of high myopia, particularly in the Chinese population, where it is highly prevalent. This study was conducted to provide evidence of linkage for autosomal dominant high myopia to a locus on chromosome 5p...
